Message-ID: <340.250A813E@bmug.FIDONET.ORG> Date: 7 Sep 89 21:42:58 GMT Sender: ufgate@bmug.FIDONET.ORG (newsout1.26) Organization: FidoNet node 1:161/444 - BMUG, Berkeley CA Lines: 22 I agree that reading a Laserwriter font on the screen is silly and that its a good idea to change just before printing but with the caveat that if you're working in Word its far better to change the normal style back and forth between screen font for reading and laser font for printing. Selecting all and changing font is *not* what you want to do because that will loose any special font changes you may have made (like symbol). Its also better not to rely on font substitution because, although the characters will get substituted (Times for New York, etc.) the character spacing does not and it won't look as good as when printed with the proper font selected instead of just substituted. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- FidoNet: 1:161/445 UUCP: sun!apple!bmug!
