Using the TrueType Font Converter to disjoin characters
TrueType fonts are normally converted and stored in a single font file. To allow for customized
kerning between each character you must disjoin the font, so that each character is converted
and stored in a separate file in a directory of your choice.
Each character has its own file and is named Xnn.plt, where nn is the keycode number of the
character (for example, X30.PLT for the zero (0) character).
To use TrueType Font Converter to disjoin characters
1 Click Start > Programs > GSP OMEGA > TT Font Converter to open the TrueType to
GSP Font Converter dialog box.
2 Click font to be converted.
3 Click Disjoin to display the Browse for folder dialog box.
4 Choose the directory you created where the disjoined character PLT files will be
stored.
5 Click OK to return to the TrueType to GSP Font Converter dialog box. As the font
converts, the converted characters appear in a preview area.
6 Close the TrueType Converter program.
Using Composer to check the template character
The letter "H" is used as a guide for setting the height of all the characters in the font.
To use Composer to check the template character
1 Click Start > Programs > GSP OMEGA > Composer to open Composer.
2 Click File > Open to open the Open dialog box.
3 Choose the directory where the converted file is located.
4 Choose PLT in Files of type.
5 Use the arrow keys to scan the files until the uppercase "H" (x48.plt) is in the preview
box.
