"Use printer spacing" is an option of the Page Setup window (at least of
WriteNow's Page Setup).
I thought I knew what this means. It is supposed to display the printer
spacing on the screen, so that you can better see what your text looks like,
right?
But this option somehow disables "font substitution", so that I get the
message "A screen (bitmap) version of the font 'geneva' is used, because
no printer font is available". For me this means that I can better leave the
option off, because it's useless.

What's the matter? Am I completely wrong?

Please answer this probable very stupid question through the mail, so that
not everybody is disturbed by the trivial answers.
