xfonts-100dpi-transcoded provides a set of bitmapped fonts at 100 dots per inch. In most cases it is desirable to have the X font server (xfs) and/or an X server installed to make the fonts available to X clients.
This package contains fonts in several ISO 8859 encodings: -2, -3, -4, -9, -10, -13, -14, and -15. For the ISO 10646-1 and ISO 8859-1 encodings, see the xfonts-100dpi package.
