Personally I find this rather frustrating, since it means that even if I, as a programmer, go to the trouble to support high- resolution PICT's, only a very few of the available printers will benefit from my efforts. The StyleWriter is Apple's highest resolution printer! And still, the driver doesn't support fine-line drawing. As I understand it, the LaserWriter SC *does* support SetLineWidth; is this correct? If so, why couldn't the relevant code have been incorporated into the new LS and StyleWriter drivers also? (Just a few more friendly neighborhood mutterings from this corner....) ------- Christopher Tate | somewhere i have never travelled, cxt105@psuvm.psu.edu | gladly beyond any experience, ..!psuvax1!psuvm.bitnet!cxt105 | your eyes have their silence.
