Please reply to the net! Thanks What you might take a look at is #1 - the newer DeskWriter drivers which are 3.1. Second, make sure that you have .5" margins since the deskwriter can't print all the way out to .25" like the postscript printers. Then, if all of that has been checked, and you are using Adobe Type Manager, check to see if you have line spaces or character shape checked. You probably have line spaces checked and need to switch to character shapes. Hope this helps, Eric -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ J.
