Hi Mike,

Here are a few diagrams I created with chess fonts in PDF form. I'm not sure
where the different chess fonts came from (different programs I have installed I
guess). I used Open Office to create the PDF files. I did these by hand (kind of
tedious), but if you like them I could attempt to write a program that will take
a FEN string as input and output the correct characters required for a
particular chess font (which would probably look like garbage to you, but once
pasted into an Open Office document with the correct font selected, should look
normal).
