- And on another note, have you or anyone else had problems using
- WordPerfect for Windows under Win-OS/2 using the ATM fonts from
- Hobbes? Everything works fine for me until I print to a postscript
- printer.
-
- The driver is supposed to download the font, but for certain fonts,
- such as Mistral, Civitype, and Shelley-Volante-Allegro, the download
- becomes utter garbage.
-
- But if I print to a Deskjet or Laserjet (ie, a rasterized printer), it
- works fine.
-
- Under PM it works correctly, but that's because (at least with the
- demo version of DeScribe) it rasterizes all the fonts, even when going
- to a postscript printer. Very stupid. Makes the postscript file huge
- and slow.
-
- 'nuff ranting. Happy New Year!
