Here are some questions about MS-Word documents.

1.  I have used the Times and the New Century Schoolbook fonts, but I
always have problems with paragraph justification.  If fractional
widths are turned off, there are no problems, but when fractional
widths are turned on ITALICS and subscripts always ruin the line they
are on.  I use Adobe's screen fonts, and print on an imagen
ultrascript printer.  This problem occurs in word 4.0 and 3.0.

2.  I generally do illustrations in Canvas 2.0 or MacDrawII 1.1.
However, when these illustrations are pasted into a document, they are
usually perverted / distorted in some way.  In fact, Canvas pictures
copied to MacDrawII 1.1 are also distorted.

I am wondering if there's a way to create and print an MS-Word 4.0
document, so it looks as good as the printout from Canvas or MacDraw
II.  SWo far, this has been very frustrating to me.
