A friend is doing some newsletter-style work using First Publisher.
Apparently, this package supports more fonts and sizes for Apple
LaserWriters than it does for HP LaserJet printers.  Unfortunately,
the place where my friend could get to a 286 machine hooked to a
LaserWriter is no longer available.  We were wondering how to make
First Publisher a bit more "aware" of LaserJet capabilities.  

How does one get FP to recognize and support HP LaserJet fonts?  It's
sure a lot easier finding an available LaserJet than a LaserWriter
around here!  Thanks for any help you can offer.  And, yes, I'm trying
to get through to Software Publishing Company, makers of First Publisher.
