Re: - visio adn Type 1 fonts

There was no Visio with Office 97.

But for Visio 2000, that's exactly what I was trying to say. The 
versions that worked with T1 were those that hadn't yet been 
significantly altered by MS from their Visio Corp roots.

MS acquired The Visio Corporation in 2000, and for all practical 
purposes just re-branded Visio 2000, which can be found in both Visio 
Corporation and Microsoft editions.

MS did some rework to a version that was already in Visio's pipeline 
and released it in April 2001 as Visio 2002. T1 fonts worked in this 
release. This version did have some other transition problems 
resulting from the beginnings of integration into the MS product line.

Visio 2003 was the first version fully integrated into the MS Office 
family, and I believe it was the first where T1 support was broken. 
And no, I don't think that the Office integration was directly 
related! Visio 2003 somehow also lost support for .eps import and export.
