Note that the following only applies to anyone in the U.S. whether they're a
private individual or with a school.  Other people will have to contact their
country's Claris distributor.

People experiencing crashes with MacDraw 1.9.6 or earlier due to printing
rotated text on the most recent LaserWriter drivers can upgrade to version
1.9.8. A person who wants MacDraw 1.9.8 can have it by simply sending Claris
their original Apple or Claris labeled MacDraw 1.X disk to the address below.
It does not come with any documentation and there is no charge for this swap.

The address to mail the disk to:
     Claris
     Media Exchange - M/S C-70
     5201 Patrick Henry Drive
     Box 58168
     Santa Clara, CA  95052-8168

This info is from a customer support person here and if you have any other
questions you will most likely get a better and faster answer if you call
them directly. The Customer Relations number is 408-727-8227 and the Tech
Support number is 408-727-9054.
