The last now supports A4-sized paper correctly, but it is very slow when printing. The MacWrite document I'm printing is plain text, nothing fancy and is set in Times Roman only, and takes several minutes a page to print. If, however, I change to US letter size, it speeds up enormously - at least three times as fast and probably more. It's like the difference between going for a cup of coffee and going for lunch. What gives? Have I left something out of my system file? Do I need a MacW update? (I fell into the trap of using the old Font/DA Mover when I first installed the new System, but I've now replaced all the fonts in my System using the new Font/DA Mover.)
