Something is missing from this picture. Aldus Pagemaker comes with 16 built-
in Postscript fonts, which will appear if he chooses Postscript Printer
under Pagemaker's Printer Setup, and then chooses Apple Laserwriter Plus
or QMS800 Plus as the specific printer hardware. This is Pagemaker 3.0
I am speaking of.

Before he buys anything else, have him talk to Aldus tech support at (800)
332-5387 if he can't get those fonts to show.
