Please don't send to GRXxxx.ZIP (It's a great package, >but I want to make my own font system) Even though you don't want to use the GRX code, what is wrong with borrowing some of the font files from the distribution? That's what I did in Allegro when I needed some bitmap font data... I don't know where you would find any docs on the GRX file format, but it isn't very complicated. Mark Wodrich wrote the loader used in Allegro by looking at the GRX source code, so you can probably figure it out just from the sources (it might be useful to look at the Allegro reader as well, which is in the file allegro/tools/datedit.c). -- Shawn Hargreaves - shawn AT talula DOT demon DOT co DOT uk - http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/ Beauty is a French phonetic corruption of a short cloth neck ornament.
