---------------------------------------------------------------------
FontFolder 3.0A is a maintenance release of FontFolder that provides fixes for
the following problems:

* Install program will not install to a directory path longer than 31
  characters.

* Helvetica and Times New Roman fonts that come with OS/2 can not be
  registered in a Library. (You normally don't need to register these fonts
  because they get added automatically. The automatic addition works; it is
  only if you try to manually register them that they are rejected.)

FontFolder 3.0A can be obtained from the following sources:

    - BMT Micro at
        http://www.bmtmicro.com
        ftp.bmtmicro.com/bmtmicro/fntf30a.zip
    - ftp-os2.nmsu.edu/.4/os2/wpsutil/fntf30a.zip
    - ftp.cdrom.com/pub/os2/wpsutil/fntf30a.zip
    - ftp.leo.org/pub/comp/os/os2/leo/pmtools/fntf30a.zip
    - Compuserve: FNT30A.ZIP in library 1 in the OS2BVEN forum.

If you have version 3.0 and either of these problems affect you, you should
download this maintenance release. Otherwise there is no new function beyond
version 3.0.

NOTE: In particular, this release does not fix the problems of crashes while
browsing fonts in Warp 4. This is NOT a FontFolder problem; it is caused by
bugs in both the Type 1 and TrueType support in Warp 4. Please report these
problems to IBM.
