True; AmigaTeX is much more than a word processor.  For either the HP LaserJet
Plus or the DeskJet, you can easily mix fonts of almost any size.  And best
of all, you don't even have to buy softfonts or cartridges; they are supplied.
And yes, it's easy, fast, and effective.  (Although TeX itself has a nice
steep learning curve.)  And, of course, full integrated graphics support as
well.

I even believe that Professional Page, City Desk, and PageStream (at least)
can easily mix and match fonts on the printers you mention . . . but I've
never tried.

Stay native for these, folks.
