Hi all,
Just a question on fonts in Squeak. I am trying to make a presentation
about Smalltalk to introduce it to students. Rather than making a
powerpoint presentation or whatever I was thinking on using a BookMorph
since that would allow me to easily show what code does during the
presentation. Unfortunately Squeak's default fonts are rather small for
using them in a presentation that is to be projected on the wall.
How can I get fonts bigger than the default set?
I tried installing new fonts using the truetype font converter:
TTFontReader installTTF: aPathAndFileNameOfaTTFfile asTextStyle:
#FontName sizes: #(12 14 16 18 20 24)
but the resulting font looked quite horrible. (the letters are there
alright but they seem to be composed of alternating black and white
pixels and I can't change the color of the text, wrong bith depth
perhaps?).
Anyone have any idea on fixing that?
Greets,
K. Gybels
