Appendix C - Advanced Terminal Customization C.1 - Emulation Font Upload
The OmniTerm terminal emulation program (TermPro) comes with a default
font which supports all languages the terminal is designed to support. This
font may not be desirable to some users. To address this issue, a feature was
added to allow the Administrator to install fonts onto the terminal for use with
the local emulation program.
Many fonts are available for free download or purchase on the Internet and
other medium.
Additional fonts are available from multiple sources on the Internet.
One site which has a number of fonts available is SourceForge.net
(http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts)
Please check the NLynx technical support web site
(www.nlynx.co.uk) as more fonts become available and tested.
Important Note: THE ONLY FONTS SUPPORTED are fonts with
“Monospace” and “Truetype” attributes.
You are responsible to ensure the font you select has the necessary
language support for your locale and that you have the legal right to use the
font. Most available fonts support US English.
