Comments:
Hello, I need 1) the pitch/height ratio (if different, for Times), and 2) the measures of the letters, numbers, symbols, etc. in Times (if possible, also in other fonts), for a given height/pitch.James Newton replies: I would contact a font vendor or typeface expert for that information. Each character will be different since it is a proportional font. If you can find a softfont, the information could be decoded from the files with a LOT of work, but it would be much easier to use a font editor to look at each character and calculate the ratio of hight to width then convert that to pitch to width. One possible program is Softy.+
Thanks.
