Silly me, ask a question then immediately read an article in MacWorld about
this.  They mention three programs, including Freedom of the Press and
UltraScript (I can't remeber the other one).  Prices varied wildly among the
three (and the different versions of each program).  Does anyone have any
recommendations relating to this?  I do NOT need networking capability for the
printer.  I DO need compatibility with the StyleWriter and TrueType fonts.
