The magazine is the "Michigan Atari Magazine", and I saw the ad-copy you
referred to.. if anything, it was even better than it appeared in the
magazine..!  (You should see the output of PageStream on a HP Laserjet!!)

You're right though, there was no reference to the actual dot-matrix
printer they used to create the ad copy.  I'll try to find out what they
used, and report back..
