It's difficult to describe a font in just a few words, so font names normally don't tell you
much about a font's style. Font designers give fonts their names. Designers do standard-
ize (normally) on the following descriptive terms.

This section explains how to delete and import fonts.

Deleting Fonts

You can delete any fonts you don't want to keep from the PowerScript Start Card. You
might want to keep a backup copy of these fonts before deleting them. You cannot, how-
ever, delete any of the fonts from PowerScript's ROM.
To create a backup copy of a font you need a connection between PowerScript and a com-
puter to transfer the file or files. See Chapter 8, PowerScript Computer Connections , for more
information.
To delete a font:
Book and Roman refer to the regular form of a font.
Italic and Oblique normally refer to slanted characters.
Bold refers to characters drawn with a heavier stroke than Book or Roman. They also
include variations such as Semibold and Demibold , often abbreviated to semi , sb , or
demi .
Light refers to characters drawn with a lighter stroke than Book or Roman.
Black refers to an extra heavy version of bold.
