The File menu

Commands in the FontWriter File menu let you access the Font Selection window to choose a font in the System folder. You can also open a font, close a font-editing session, save the font in a 3DO-readable format, save as, and save the font in a format displayable on a 3DO System. The commands are described in Table 2-3.
