I have tested version 3.3 with PageMaker 3.02, including fractional font sizes,
and it works just fine. Aldus warns of a problem with "SuperClock! version 3."
They leave it unclear exactly which version this is, and so it may have already
been fixed in later SuperClock! versions 3.0x. Or my simple test (which in-
cluded printing out on a LaserWriter) just didn't hit the bug.

I have had none of the problems cited by the original poster with regard to
version 3.4. However, I too would like to get the current version.
