Hi,

  I have a user that is tring to draw boxes in there Waterloo GML/Script
job with the .TR command and is having problems getting the boxes to look
they should. The wrong characters are appearing in the corners and the
vertical bars a not long enought so there are gaps between then. There are
using the default MONO font in GML/Script. Does any one know what would be
the correct font to use and what would be the dorrect hex values for the
translate command. This font has to be a MONO spaced font. We are printing
this on an IBM 3827 and have all of the IBM Licensed font available to PSF
using Waterloo Script 90.1.

Below is a example of what the user is doing:



.im GMLguide
:GDOC
.tr @ ac # bc $ ab % bb | fa + 8f - bf } eb { ec ! cc � cb ` af
:body.
.fo off
.bf mono
