<DIV><FONT size=2>I'm taking the time to review font handling in preparation to
the conference.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Some time ago we already agreed on a number of tasks to be
done in a second step after the first definition of the font
structure.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Targets of this phase:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>1. Move command sequences from the font handling dtd to the
command sequence dtd.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>2. Edit field names to have more MS Windows independent naming
conventions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>3. Get a better understanding, which fields are more font
technology specific and which are more device implementation
specific.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>4. Think about an as easy as possible job for font companies
to create font descriptions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>5. Create two sample fonts.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Courier and Arial with characters from 0020 to 007E and from
00A0 to 00FF only.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>As in many cases I am willing to do the initial work, but
would appreciate some help when settling it down.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Who is willing to help me some time tomorrow considering my
results as it could be done in this short time?</FONT></DIV>
