I have both programs and neither fulfill the request.  The initial request
was for WYSIWIG.  At best, both programs (like ALL Windows codes) are
WYSIWYSOg (what you see is what youll Sort Of get).  The font informatinon
shown on screen is not at all accurate.  Untill the TrueFont stuff
is part of a Windows release, WYSIWIG ain't available in Windows.
