You must have the fonts from the suitcase file shipped with Technical Notes for them to print correctly. Check the FTP site, AppleLink, or the distribution disks from APDA for these font files. These MacWrite files are also formatted for LaserWriter driver 6.0, and earlier versions may result in different results-although this is highly unlikely to cause the problems described. -- Mark B.
