J.R.: The Postscript printer driver in the libs here simply takes the information from a standard ascii file and converts it to postscript code. It therefore can take normal text, or things like "DIR > PRT:" from the cli, and output to a postscript printer. If you set preferences to "DRAFT", it will output Courier (so that spacing is consistent, for tables, for example). If you set preferences to "Letter", it will use Times-Roman, which is proportional. Now, it works pretty well with most wordprocessors, too. BUT — it has some limitations regarding format controls. It won't always give you what you want if you are being fancy. I use it at work all the time, since I normally print into a postscript printer. For most text, and ALL system output to printer, as well as things like code, docs, etc., it works great. If I want to get fancy, I either use Professional Page, or if I want to get sorta fancy, I dumpt the text over the BridgeBoard, and use WordPerfect 5.x output in postscript to the same printer. ?|^] Ray Lewis
