Using Degas and dumping the screens to >the laser is a great way to quickly generate presentation graphics, but the >fonts could be improved: especially at large magnifications. I had a similar problem until someone pointed out to me that the fonts must be available to the system both at *boot* time (when GDOS loads) and at *run* time. This means that the directory containing the fonts, named in the assign.sys file, must be available to GDOS when *it* loads, and available when you launch DEGAS. Signature follows. Hit 'n' now. You have been warned!
