When I tried to print out the proff manual, I discovered the my
printer did bizarre things with underline and boldface. (underline
came out like 't_h_e_' and boldface became 'tthhee'.  I realized
that my printer did not recognize the backspace commands.  (which
is alright cuz it isn't meant to in logic seek mode.) 
   So, I said 'No problem, I'll just load in the printer driver 
from my START disk.'  Discovery number 2:  The driver in START 
only replaces the screen dump utility, not the regular driver.
   So, I said 'No problem, I'll just load in a driver from my
First Word disk'.  There isn't one for a Prowriter and no info on
how to make one.

  Any body have any spare Prowriter drivers lying around, or any kind 
of information that I could use to make my own???
