I have had trouble with the combination of Fontastic Plus, Word 3.01, and a
LaserWriter Plus.

I created a font in 72 point size.  I used it with MacWrite, where the
characters appeared correctly on the screen, the ImageWriter, and the Laser
Writer.  I then used it with Word 3.01, where the characters appeared correctly
on the screen, the ImageWriter, but not on the LW; here they all had zero
width, meaning each character appeared at the left margin!

I tried it without the set FOND widths, by removing the FOND resource and installing it into a new system.  This provides a default FOND set of widths.  It worked on the LW, but the default widths were all wrong and it acted terrible on the screen.

I eventually gave it up.  Maybe this is a bug in Fontastic Plus; it was always
a buggy package in all its incarnations.  Anybody else have any ideas?
