Astrology Typeface by "Laser Printing Solutions" Date: 10/22/03

The enclosed ASTRO font has been specifically designed for use with
Astrology programs. It is the same original Astro font produced by
Kenneth Hirst, but with two additional glyphs--chiron and lilith (Dark Moon).
This font can also be used within published documents, graphics programs,
etc. Launch Windows Write and print out ASTRO.WRI for symbol explanation.
This lastest compilation (10/20/03) provides extra tables and dropout
prevention to display more clearly on low resolution screens.
If you are NOT using a font utility to select "font groups," then to
install the TrueType font, simply launch Windows, open the Control
Panel, select Fonts, then File | Install New Font, and choose
Astro from the correct directory.
Once installed, print out the ASTRO.WRI file for symbol location/name.
Note: If you have already installed an Astro font into your system, I
recommend that you remove it. Back up the old font file if necessary
and delete it from the system using the Control Panel. Otherwise, you
may experience some difficulty (see printing.txt for troubleshooting).
You must have Adobe Type Manager (ATM) to install the PostScript
version of this font (ASTRO___.PFB) in Windows.
If you obtained the font Astro-SemiBold from a BBS or the net, and looks
similar to this font, it is an improper conversion of my font and is
likely to cause printing problems and system crashes due to the nature of
its poor conversion. If you know of such a font being distributed on the
net, please advise me.
Although submitted as shareware, this font is *not* to be financially
distributed (or placed on any disk, or BBS for which a charge is made)
*without* permission of the author. It is yours to use and enjoy for 30
days, but at the end of that time, if you are still using this font you
are morally obligated to send in the shareware fee which is $.6.00 If you
require the extended ASTRO font that includes Asteroids and zodiacal
pictographs, send $12.50.
Checks should be made payable to: Kenneth Hirst

All TrueType fonts are compiled for optimal utilization on PC systems.
Many less expensive fonts are simply scanned images that have not been
optimally hand tuned, so please do not commercially exploit this font.
If you feel that other glyphs should be generated for additional fonts,
please let me know. Laser Printing Solutions also creates custom fonts,
logos and signatures for individuals and organizations.
