I am currently looking for a font for my Mac that will accomodate importing
text files from an IBM platform. Most fonts cause a jagged appearance where
tabs and spaces are rather than a clean columnar appearance.  I like the
geneva font best but it causes the jagged appearance. I believe what I need
is a non-proportional font. I am using the saveatree software on Mac and
printing text in as little as 5 pt. type. I have a geneva5-6 pt font but, as
I said, the jagged appearance, yet the character quality is excellent.
I would appreciate any suggestions or corrections to my theory or software
I am using. Thanks in advance and please respond either to one of the above
groups or to my email address: MATTOTE@UCF1VM.CC.UCF.EDU


Again, thanks in advance.
