Re: Imagewriter docs are scrozzled when I go to print on a laserwriter.
I was told the laserwriter has bigger characters, and the spacing just
isn't the same. One partial workaround is to always compose your
document for a LASERWRITER. Then, when you to print on an
imagewriter, your document might shrink in length (but this works fine
in most cases). You might also experiment with the 4% reduction
option in the laserwriter dialogues.
Decide whether your documents are truly laserwriter docs or
imagewriter docs. Then you can imagine that one is just a "draft"
printer, and forget about making the documents look the same. You
wouldn't want them to look the same on both printers anyway. The
imagewriter's resolution is so low, the character spacing would be
very uneven if you tried to produce a laserwriter page on an
imagewriter.
