Using Outline Fonts:
Outline fonts are available on Amiga systems with Release 2 and higher system software.

The Amiga uses Agfa Compugraphic Intellifont® technology that is managed through the Intellifont utility.

Compugraphic fonts for MS-DOS computers can be purchased and used on the Amiga.

Because of their large size and memory requirements, outline fonts are best suited to expanded systems equipped with hard disks.

You can use them with floppy disk systems, but you may need to delete items from the Workbench backup disk to make room for them.

Outline fonts can be printed at the highest resolution of your printer, typically better than screen resolution.

Outline fonts do not have separate files for each point size; instead, outline fonts are mathematically generated as required.

As a result it can take longer on the first try to access an outline font than a bitmap font.
