Hi.  Does anyone have experience with printing technical drawings on 
2-ply Bristol board---a slightly stiff card used for technical drawings
everywhere---on the LaserWriter?  I don't want to wreck the printer for
the sake of one drawing!

On a related topic, can anyone point me to a recent discourse on the
relative merits of the low end of CAD programs for the Macintosh?  We are
considering Claris CAD, but would like to hear comments from those who
have used it or other programs in the same price range.  MacDraw, FreeHand,
etc., are not adequate for drawing piping.  I'll post a summary if there
are enough responses.
Thanks,
