font metrics

["Forrest Carpenter" <forrest@sdicgm.com>]

All,

 

Attached are the adobe AFM file, a png image and a CGM file showing characters drawn with a cap height of 71.8 mm. The characters included are the A-ring which shows the max y of 931 and the C-cedilla which has the min y of -225. The image was generated on UNIX using the Microcosm font for Helvetica which is visually and metrically equivalent to the Adobe font. When drawn on Windows mapping Helvetica to Arial we get different results.

 

Regards,

Forrest
