I don't have the phone number here, but it was in PC Mag. a few issues ago. (You might try 1-303-353-7650). There is also a "Bitstream Fontware Module for the HP LaserJet III" for the asking. For DOS, I use the PC-8 font. I set my LJ III to use it as the default font (from the front panel) and haven't had any problems since. -- rbt@tous.UUCP Robert B.
