	Why not just output the results of figlet to a textfile? Do 
'figlet -f whatever > output.txt' and anything you type into figlet will 
be outputted to that file. Make sure you end your input with Ctrl-Z (^Z) 
though. Hope that helps..

	Also, I thought the fonts figlet made WERE ascii. Aren't they?
