This machine understands postscript and I found a hint about a postscript command '?fontlist' but I have no idea how to use it in order to receive the information. The machine is connected to our Apple-Talk and I think I have to use the printer manager and maybe some other stuff.The "Inside MacIntoshs" are very nice but there is too much information and no code to get an idea how to use all these functions. I am not even sure if I have explained my problem well enough that someone could post or mail a solution. Thanx in advance, Mirko. brandner@iao.fhg.de
