Abstract
Hershey-s "Repertory of Occidental Fonts" is well known in the field of computer graphics, as a set of character-forms which is superior to the cruder representations used when space was at a premium. This paper gives a method of extending Hershey-s format to include true curves, thus giving near typographical quality.
