A friend of mine is currently using an IBM PS/2 Model 50 to run Word Perfect
5.0 at her office.
She does a lot of work with different fonts in the same document, and WP
downlines them to an HP Laserjet II. The fonts are created with Bitstream
Charter software.
The problem is this: the printer often loses track of where the fonts are
located in it's memory (I think) and it reverts to normal-looking text,
ignoring WP's font commands.
My local computer dealer refers to this problem as "Font Overload" - loading
too much font information to the printer [she does use big fonts]. His
suggestions to fix the problem involve throwing hardware at it until it
goes away in the form of Font Cartridges or RAM exapnsion.

Is anyone out there familiar with this situation? The most reasonable solution
does seem to be adding 1 Meg of RAM to the printer, but I would like to know
for sure before I tell them to spend $200 on it.
Is this maybe just a bug in the printer driver? WP doesn't think so, but 
version 5.1 is on the way to the office.

Any advice would be greatly appreicated.
