	Uh......probably a dumb question but why not use ProPage to print
	to your dot-matrix? It will print at the full resolution of your 
	printer.

	I don't think you'll need em' if your printing to dot-matrix.
	I have a postscript printer with the "Standard" Adobe fonts,
	but I also have an HP Paintjet. I don't need to do anything
	but switch my parallel switch box over to HP when I want
	to us it. (In addition to choosing Dot Matrix in the output
	requester.). If you have the CG-Outline fonts, you can go
	directly to Dot-Matrix. Of course, I'm talking about
	ProPage 1.3 minimum. I've never used anything older than
	that.
