How to create automatically outline fonts?

[SimSaw]

Can you tell me how I can do it? I read that this now is added.

[TeeKay]

Um... The manual? And you sure you got the 2.57 beta?

[SimSaw]

The manual? Where should I look at?

[TerranRich]

Heh.

Click on the "Help" menu. Same as it's always been.

[SimSaw]

NO! WHERE in the manual shall I look? There are lot of pages!

[Privateer Puddin']

do a search?

[SimSaw]

Searching for what? I looked already for 'outline font' but there wasn't anything helpful.

Can't just somebody explain me how to do this?

[TeeKay]

Yeah, as soon as I download the beta... I don't know if I do before release of 2.57.

I'd like to know wher eit is in the manual, too, becuase I couldn;t find it either. I hope that all these people who have posted RTFMs have actually checked that it is there!

On the other hand, if you select a font in AGS257b2 then it's pretty obvious how to do the auto-outlining


OK, OK, There's 3 radio buttons above the font alphabet: No Outline, Auto outline and Use outline font #. Select the middle one!

[Pumaman]

Yeah, I didn't really think it needed to be mentioned in the manual - I thought the radio buttons on the Fonts tab were self-explanitory.

What would you want it to say in the manual?

Heh.  

[SimSaw]

Sorry. Above the font alphabet is just this:
-Use with outline font checkbox
-Import font button
-Rever to default button

but NOWHERE there is an automatically create outline font checkbox are button. What do I wrong?

You have to be using 2.57beta2 to have this feature. Download it from the top thread in the Tech Forum (first post).

[Ishmael]

WHAT DID I SAY... er... ASK???

And you sure you got the 2.57 beta?

Sorry.....

Of cource I meant the newest beta, I wasn't sure in which this was added, but when mentioned that it's in the beta, it's a good idea to check the beta release thead...

[SimSaw]

Thanks. I thought I'd already downloaded it, but it probably was Beta1 and not Beta2.
