I'm using a 512K Mac, new (128K) ROM, HD-20, Finder 5.3 and System 3.2 ...
I just bought the HD-20, and stuffed my System file with lots of fonts.
Now that I have fonts in sizes from 7 to 36, how can I use 'em?  Seems
MacWrite, Paint, others, only let you use a fixed selection of sizes.
I know that some sizes are used for the 1/2-size in 'best quality' printing
(36 used for 18 ... ) but can I change something to let me use, say,
size 7 or 11 or 36 directly from applications?

Thanks in advance for any help!   Jim Laing   E-net node FGVAXU::LAING
