Our company has used Typeline extensively, and we've had great results
from them.  They do not have a Linotronic 300; they have a Linotronic 100,
which is basically the same device, except its maximum resolution is
1270 DPI whereas the L300's max is 2540 DPI.

Other companies that provide PS typesetting:

Krishna copy centers (Berkeley, CA): 415-540-5959.

Typesetting Service Corp (Providence, RI):  401-421-2264.

Spectrum Arts, Ltd. (Baldimore): 301-462-6900.

MacTypeNet (Livonia, MI): 313-477-2733.

High Tech Type (Tulsa, OK): 918-587-5023.  Ask for Eli Maghe, tell him I
sent you.

All of these shops except for Spectrum Arts have L300's.  Prices can vary
widely (from $6 per page to $16pp), so shop around.

We're going to be publishing a fairly exhaustive list of these places
in an upcoming issue of the PostScript Language Journal.  I'll post the
list here when it's finished.

P.S.  For those of you that have subscribed and are waiting for your first
issue:  please be patient.  We're just starting this puppy, and we want to
do it right.  The first issue is being set right now (yes, we are using
cut and paste is a few places:  advertisers seem to think that halftone
pictures should be stripped in), so we'll be mailing in the next three
weeks (it'll still be going out in the first quarter, just not January).

We're going to try and close up the loop about two weeks/issue for the
next three, which will get us on schedule by the first issue of '88
(mid January).  Bear with us...you should be pleased with what you get.
