[[Someone have URLs for what '''TrueType''' is, etc.? [RS]: Name of a company (later bought by [Microsoft]) which produced scalable vector fonts of good quality for Macintosh, later also for Windows. TrueType fonts typically have the extension .ttf. The format is sort of portable so that TTF fonts from large Windows desktops also run well on [PocketPC]s. I like most the quick reaction: you can scale a font in a Tk widget e.g. with a [scale] and have it react in about real time. ---- [[ [Category Characters] ]]
