My Problem:

	I am evaluating Macs and WORD, and have come across what I
believe is a hardware limitation.  Currently I write manuals in Times
10 pt font on an HP with a PC because our manual page is small (about
5 by 8)

	In evaluating WORD, I find the 10 point Times font unbearable
to work in. (I use a Mac II and an Apple Color Monitor both leased) I
know you can use New York and have the printing substitute Times, but
this messes up the spacing between words.  I have to use 10 point
Times, it's our standard.




Solution?

	Would getting a good monitor help (about 150 DPI like
	Princeton's)?

	Is there a better, readable, Times in 10 pt (I doubt it in
	75DPI)??

	Is there another solution I'm overlooking?????
