Years ago, I used to convert fonts by copying from fontsrv -p. This was due to bugs fontsrv had at the time, but I guess it may still be useful. Here's the 4 scripts I used to use, for whatever they might be worth. % for(n in _get*){echo 'cat >' $n '< _get_1_size < $dir^font if(! ~ $status '')

For what it's worth, you don't need to mount fontsrv anywhere. You can just use 'fontsrv -p .' to list the fonts, and then refer to them as /mnt/font/Name/SIZEa/font. For example: /usr/local/plan9/bin/acme \     -f /mnt/font/LucidaGrande/12a/font \     -F /mnt/font/SourceCodePro-Regular/12a/font

If you don't have access to any other truetype fonts, you might want to try Go font to check. Here's the info: https://blog.golang.org/go-fonts On Fri, Feb 19, 2021, 7:48 PM Bakul Shah wrote: > On Feb 19, 2021, at 4:58 PM, cigar562hfsp952f...@icebubble.org wrote: > > > > Skip Tavakkolian
