I've just gotten a new Mac that only runs Mac OS X. I used to run Pagemaker 
6.52 on my old Mac in OS 9.2, and everything was fine. Pagemaker runs fine 
in Classic on my new Mac, except for how it displays fonts on screen.

In PM under Classic, fonts display in very blocky, ugly, and difficult to 
read manner in the smaller point sizes (12pt for example). 

Is there any way to improve how Pagemaker displays text when running under 
Classic on OS X 10.2.x? When I ran OS 9, ATM made a great improvement in 
on-screen fonts, but it doesn't seem to work under Classic.

I'm used to Pagemaker, and would rather not go to the trouble and expense 
of switching to InDesign if I can avoid it.
