I have FoP 3.0, but from my understanding from Custom Applications (the
publishers), the only real difference between FoP and FoP Light is that
FoP comes with more fonts (the entire LW+ set rather than just the LW four).
Under System 6, I simply choose the QuickDraw driver, and it then shows me
all of the print drivers in my System Folder.  I choose StyleWriter, and
voila!  I have a "360-dpi Postscript printer"!  I just attempted to print
a directory under System 7, and it didn't print anything, however.
