On screen, TrueType does what ATM does when "Preserve line spacing" option
is chosen: All accented characters are vertically crunched.  The same thing
happens on my DeskWriter output, although LaserWriter output is correct.
I suspect this would happen with all nonpostscript printers.  Could anyone
with a StyleWriter tell me about its output?
 
Is there a way to turn this off (as in ATM's "Preserve character shape" option)
so that the body of the accented characters are of the same size as the other
characters?
