I wish to build an About Box picture using a 3 like Staz used in the
default About Box, but I've haven't identified a font that actually
has it among the ones I have access to. It appears Geneva
(italicized) would work, but only up to 14 point (bit maps change
after that and it's not in the TrueType font that way), when I try to
use it in any of the graphics programs I have I get the plain old
rounded three. I have access to the fonts with Adobe Illustrator 7.0
(as well as 6.0 and 5.5) but nothing there seems to come close (could
have missed one or two). I tried tracing Staz's 3 and importing the
tracing into Strata 3D but I had problems with the result. This
looked like such a simple project went I started and now it bugs me
that I haven't found a solution.
I might not have all of Apple's fonts installed, especially the old
GX fonts. I went back and got Skia because someone was using it on
their web site, but I wasn't looking for the three back then.
