Here are the 'True Type' versions of the original Descent ][ Fonts:

"Descent ][ Score" (DescScor.TTF) is the font,
that appears at the scoring table.
"Descent ][ Menu Bold" (DescMenu.TTF) is the font,
that appears at the main menus.
"Descent ][ Logo Bold" (DescLogo.TTF) is the font,
which the Descent logo is made of.


Creation time: Software:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~
Descent ][ Score : 10h CorelDRAW V6.0!
Descent ][ Menu : 17h CorelDRAW V6.0!
Descent ][ Logo : 8h CorelDRAW V7.0!

How to install the fonts in Windows:

- Hit the '§' or 'ß' key to see the authors logo.

- Hit the '²' or '³' key to get a Pyro-GX Symbol.

- With some printer drivers you may have to disable the 'Postscript' option to
print out a text with the Descent Fonts !!!

- The " and ' key may not work in CorelDRAW V7.0 !!!

- Non-commercial distribution in any form is welcome, provided that this
.txt file is included.


Special Thanx:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PlanetDescent fonts page isn't loading for me and the other page is gone long ago.

Nevermind, it seems firefox didn't like the PD fonts page. Maxthon opened it right up. Thanks again.
