THE FONTS
The fonts that have currently been converted to the notation described in this report, are for the most part taken directly from the tables of Wolcott and Hilsenrath. For convenience, they are divided up into 32 character segments which we have chosen to name numbers, small, caps, and greek. Figures 3 to 8 illustrate the characters that make up the following fonts (in each subset, the characters are numbered from 1 to 32):
MATH SYMBOLS... A collection of commonly used symbols in mathematics taken from the Hershey characters between no.'s 2225 and 2278 (as referenced in the Vs-'olcott and Hilsenrath tables).
CARTO FONT... Numbers and caps are taken from the Hershey cartographic symbols from no.'s 1 to 234. Although the Hershey fonts do not include small letters, these were custom designed and included as part of this font.
INDEX FONT... The members of this font were taken from the complex index size Hershey characters from no.'s 1001 to 1150.
SIMPLEX FONT... The members of this set were taken from the print size simplex Hershey characters from no.'s 501 to 551.
COMPLEX FONT... The members of this font were taken from the print size complex Hershey characters from, no.'s 2200 to 2224.
GOTHIC FONT... This set is a mixture of two different Hershey fonts. The numbers are from the print size gothic Hershey characters from no.'s 3700 to 3729, while the small letters and caps are from the Hershey Italian gothic set (no.'s 3901 to 3950) and the Hershey print size English gothic set (no.'s 3700 to 3750), respectively.
SCRIPT FONT... This font is taken from the print size Hershey complex script characters from, no.'s 2550 to 2575, 2650 to 2676, and 2750 to 2776.
