(Address error.) Get the upgrade to 3.02. I've had no problems w/ 3.02 and 6.0 under uni-finder or multifinder. I've even been able to put 3.02 on the same floppy w/ a minimum 6.0 script and a decent number of ps fonts. (Inc. 10 and 12 pt sizes of all of the LaserWritePlus serif fonts, Zapf Dingbats 12 pt., Times 9 pt., and Courier 9 pt. (All of them are Adobe screen fonts except Courier 9 which is an Apple font.) The required fonts are also there. The only think I've found is that I'll have to add Monoco 12 (I think) to get decent displays of Word Help. An aside: What I wouldn't do for a hard drive!!!!!! BTW, the upgrae should be free. -JimC -- batcomputer!cloos@cornell.UUCP |James H.
