Just to be weird, I *have* seen Canadian rating icons on a US Prevue channel (I think it was already TV Guide Channel by that point) - the one by Adelphia/Time Warner in the Niagara Falls, NY area. (We have a couple Canadian OTA stations which the cable provider rebroadcasts. And a couple which they don't.)

Ah, interesting. Makes sense that it would differ by channel.

Canadian cable systems used some of the same Preview hardware / software for a time.

Version 1.3 of the PrevueC font is released. Fixes the incorrect period in prior versions. Also includes some new international support.

Edit: Superseded by v2.0, see 1/14 post.

Windows XP and earlier users: remove the old version before installing this one.

Windows Vista and later will automatically upgrade the font when you put it in the Fonts folder.

Thank you for converting. I was woundering if you are also going to convert the "FinalH26f" and "Logos" fonts? I would like to have both the old EPG/Prevue list font and the logos font converted to TrueType.

I'm trying to make an H26f lookalike but it doesn't come out too good.

PrevueC font v2.0 release!

Post by rudyvalencia »

Attention everyone!

Version 2.0 of PrevueC is here! Contains every symbol in the "PrevueC" Amiga font, as close as I can get to replicating them - some of them I had to rely on EPSes and PDFs to recreate. But now it contains the icons and logos all in the correct order and everything!

Download the latest version here.
