Sorry about that, Phill. I write code with Memacs, and when I imported it into
AutoPilot the <HT>s were all ignored, so I tried to fix it with spaces. I
suspect you got both the tabs and the spaces…
You saw the problem, of course. I can't believe I didn't spot that–it's the
mistake I make over and over, and usually find it right away. It should
certainly be the first thing I consciously look for.
Two other things I was wrong about. I misinterpreted the Flag; what I need for
disk fonts is xxxxxx10, so I changed the "dc.b 0,1" to "dc.b 0,2." And
apparently as a result of running Fixfont, I now have a times.font file in
Fonts: (I wonder where it, topaz.font, etc., etc., had disappeared to since
the last time I ran Fixfont?)
I just ran one quick test of the fix, and the function succeeds, although the
results at the printer are still Topaz8. I guess SetFont isn't working, very
likely for exactly the same reason.
Thanks for the help. I'd about given up.
