Hello out there,  
     I know this has been dealt with previously, but I have missed it before.
The problem is that I hav a copy of Atariwriter on disk, and the printer 
drivers from Antic.  I can't figure out what to do to get them to work together

     What do I need to do? I can do whatever is necessary...

Thanks in advance,

Paul Franceus

	I also had the same problem, but someone cleared it up for me.  Now
I don't know whether this works on all Atariwriters or only modified ones,
but name the printer driver PUTORUN.SYS and the proofreader (if you have
it) DUTORUN.SYS and all should be well.  If that doesn't work, switch the
filenames around, but I am reasonably sure that 'D' is for the proofreader
and 'P' for the printer driver.

I assume you mean you have the printer program that appeared in ANTIC
several months ago.  You may need to do some heavy modifying to get
it to run exactly right for your set-up.  A better way to go might
be to buy the program PRINTER DRIVER CONSTRUCTION SET from ANTIC.  It
is an APX program (AP131) and costs $19.95.  It will allow you to 
configure Atariwriter (c) for almost any type printer.  The only
problem is, you need the Atariwriter (c) cartridge.  How did you
get Atariwriter (c) on disk?  Maybe I shouldn't question the obvious...
