The Scribe GaramondBoldItalic raw font file
(/usr/athena/lib/scribe/database/garamo.raw ) contains an error that
renders it unusable.
Scribe complains as follows:
Error found at rawfont(garamondbolditalic), line 619 while reading a
RawFont at rawfont(garamondbolditalic), line 467: The delimited
string beginning at rawfont(garamondbolditalic), line 619 was never
terminated by a closing >.
The error description is almost exactly correct--there is a missing
">", but it is on line 468. That line currently reads
Location = <Select "/Garamond-BoldItalic",
but it should read
Location = <Select "/Garamond-BoldItalic">,
Priority: low (The last time I looked, Athena's LN03 and LPS-40
printers did not implement the Garamond font, so this bug is of
concern only to people who use Athena Scribe to generate output to
their own printers.)
