I am a reasonably satisfied DeskWriter owner, but I do have a few questions. If anybody out there knows the answers, please E-Mail me and I'll summarize back to comp.sys.mac. 1) Using FullWrite professional draw layer, it seems that a) Hairlines are the same as regular lines b) Lines are drawn at 300dpi resolution, but splines are drawn at 75dpi 2) Contrary to what the documentation, I can't get either of my workhorse programs (SuperPaint 2.0 or FullWrite) to print text at any of the 90 degree rotations at full resolution. If I make a document that says "Horizontal" aligned horizontally and "Vertical" rotated to stretch vertically, the word "Horizontal" comes out looking fine, but the "Vertical" has the jaggies. It is slightly humorous that if I do a "Page Setup" and change to landscape mode, "Horizontal" is still imaged right and "Vertical" is still wrong. 3) Does anybody know how well Adobe Type Manager works on the DeskWriter and if you can get fonts other than the standard LW Plus fonts from Adobe (or anywhere) for the DeskWriter? Thanks in advance, Michael Toy mtoy@sgi.com
