ORIGIN OF THIS FONT

This font is based on - but differs slightly from - the Aurebesh
lettering created by West End Games. My focus has been to accurately
populate this font with letters that are seen in the movies of the
original trilogy. After close examination of screenshots and officially
available information, many letters have been revised or replaced.

Letters that do not appear in the trilogy were replaced. These include:
Grek, Jenth, Osk, and Resh. (If you don't know what any of these letter
names mean, don't worry about it; this info is for the Aurebesh
purists.) Grek has been replaced with a modified version of Enth. Osk
has been replaced with Orenth. Resh has been replaced by Nen. Jenth has
been replaced with an entirely new letter, which I refer to as Jul. All
other letters have been severely modified for accuracy. Arabic numerals
(1,2,3, etc) have been used in the font, since Arabic numerals were used
in the original trilogy. See the attached galbasic_table.gif for a full
table of Galactic Basic letters and their respective keys.

NOTE: This font is simply a personal interpretation. It will not allow
you to translate anything seen in the movies. I apologize if your
favorite letters have been changed or removed.

USE OF THIS FONT

IMPORTANT: There are two distinct sets of letters in this font -
uppercase and lowercase (see galbasic_cases.gif). Uppercase letters are
"rightside up" letters, resembling the familiar Aurebesh. Lowercase
letters are upside down (rotated 180 degrees) versions of their
uppercase counterparts. This was done so you can create upside-down
words, which often appear on screen. To recreate movie-accurate text,
uppercase and lowercase should not be mixed on the same line, and you
should not use capital letters with lowercase. If you're simply looking
for visually appealing letter combinations, mixing upper and lowercase
can be quite effective (see galbasic_mixedcases.gif).

REDUCING SPACES BETWEEN LETTERS

Because of the shapes of many of the letters, unsightly spaces have a
tendency to form in the middle of words. To correct for this, I have
adjusted the kerning for many of the letters so that they fit more
closely together. This kerning is not automatic however; it must be
turned on in the text program you are using. For example, to enable
kerning in Word, select Format, Font, Character Spacing, then enable
"kerning for fonts". See galbasic_kerning.gif for an example of words
with and without kerning.
