<p>Robhagemans: add information on ChiWriter font and links to online specs</p> <hr /> <div>{{FormatInfo<br /> |formattype=electronic<br /> |subcat=Fonts<br /> |extensions={{ext|pft}}, {{ext|sft}}<br /> |released=1986<br /> }}<br /> [[ChiWriter font]] is a font format associated with the [[ChiWriter]] scientific document editor for MS-DOS. Filename extension '''.pft''' is for printer fonts, and '''.sft''' is for screen fonts.<br /> <br /> == Specification ==<br /> The ChiWriter format is substantially similar to the [[GRASP font]] 'new' format, also used by PC-Paint and apparently deriving from the PC version of Fontrix. The Apple II Fontrix format is somewhat different.<br /> <br /> There are two versions of the format:<br /> * ChiWriter v3: http://jphdupre.chez-alice.fr/chiwriter/technic3/gcw3v01.html#pagev09<br /> * ChiWriter v4: http://jphdupre.chez-alice.fr/chiwriter/manuel4/mcw4-155.html#page158<br /> <br /> == Sample files ==<br /> * http://cd.textfiles.com/bthevhell/300/201/<br /> <br /> == Links ==<br /> * [[Wikipedia:ChiWriter|Wikipedia: ChiWriter]]</div>
