I have ProWrite 3.3.2 and am running AmigaDOS 1.3. Is there a way to improve
the print quality of my output to a 24 pin dot matrix printer by using my
existing Compugraphic fonts. I realize I can import my documents to Pro Page
and get good output that way but shouldn't I be able to use these fonts
directly?
Claudio,
We support the outline font technology under AmigaDos 2.0 and later. The 1.3
version of the operating system did not have support for outline fonts included
in it. What you can do is to create bitmaps for the screen font as well as a
double sized font for ProWrite to render the document in when printing. With
the 24 pin printers under 1.3 you should be using a print density of 180X180
and have AspectAdjusted turned off in ProWrite's Page Setup Requester. This
will yield the best results.
The Marble font and The Granite font that were provided with the ProWrite
distribution disks are designed to work well in our High Quality printing mode
as well.
