- Hi Reid,
-
- I had trouble initially printing Finale output on our postscript
- printers. We have a Tektronix Phaser III and a SPARC Printer. Neither
- would print the output correctly.
-
- However, when we upgraded our SPARC Printer from NeWSPrint 1.0 to 2.0
- it worked! Looks great too!
-
- The PostScript output from Finale includes the music fonts. This
- requires some new level of PostScript which allows the embedded fonts.
- I thought it was either PostScript Level 2 or PostScript with level 2
- font support, but I wasn't able to find the reference (I looked in the
- NeWSPrint 2.0 release notes). In any case NeWSPrint 2.0 now supports
- this. I hope you're using NeWSPrint, especially since you work at
- Sun!!! -- If so, upgrade and go!!
-
- I haven't looked into the possibility of upgrading the Tektronix, I
- doubt it's possible. Perhaps someone knows the correct name for this
- PostScript functionality?
-
- Good luck,
-
- Chris.
