No, I think that the problem with MacEqn is different than the EndNote
problem.  Formulas are copied from MacEqn as PICTs.  If the margins are
set too wide in MacEqn, the formulas are too wide for the page when pasted
in MacWrite II, and are scaled down to fit the margins. (There is no problem   
with Write Now since it lets you paste PICTs wider than the margins w/o scaling
them.)  When the margins are adjusted correctly in MacEqn, the formulas
paste in to MacWrite II just fine.
