Fonts for laserprinter are slightly different due to the different dots/in.,
so doucment is formatted lightly differently if you format with a laserwriter
driver or, say, an imagewriter one.

Solution is simple.  In your mac, even though it's not connected to a
laserwriter, put a laserwriter driver (comes on apple system release disks,
printing tools disk) in your system folder, and select it with chooser.
Then, what you'll see in word (and presumably other such applications) will
be the same way it will print when you carry your floppy over to the machine
with the laserwriter.

Happy New Year.
