Answers Larry… 1) DesignText supports straight ASCII IN and OUT. 2) It will NOT suppoort ANY font – Reason being, we use a 12×24 font for printers and an 8×8 font on screen. By allowing ANY font, you lose the quality on the printer — BUT You can use ANY for as a Graphic (Either create in the WP or with Dpaint, etc) and use that, but don't blame anyone for the quality <smile> of the printout. 3) DT will not use IFF format for text. It would mean that we'd have to create custom HUNKS, which would just about defeat the purpose of IFF. If the need warrants it, IFF will be in the second release. 4) DesignText will be available thru dealers, but the retail price will most likely be $129.00 US. By ordering NOW (before the dealers get them) you are guaranteed the $79 US price. DesignText will more than likely NOT be put thru distributors due to the fact that we like our 'arms and legs'. <grin> Hope this answers the questions. BTW – Emily Carr took the 4020. bri
