PgS does not cache fonts on disk because you can only cache certain sizes. We decided forcing the user to choose the optimal caching system was stupid because it forces the user to plan ahead to decide what is needed, and is far too complex for Joe User. PgS decides which sizes it should cache and how much memory should be used — it's all dynamic. PgS does not have to render from the main font file if the bitmap is not in the cache. This is identical to ProPage. However, if you don't have enough memory for caching, PgS will have to get it off of disk. This is why ram is so important. 3 to 4 megs is required for serious use. I have 6 on my system and CG fonts fly. SL Tech
