Bugs
O
VD0
or
RRamDisk
don't work with
AdRAM
. They appear to mount
correctly the first time, but after a warm boot they either lock-up the
machine on being re-mounted, or return a "Read/Write error" on
attempting to access the device. Judging by the text accompanying the
VD0 special A3000 version, this problem is most likely due to expansion
memory located at $C00000 (which is one of the locations used by the
AdRAM board).
O
ArtExpression
, even v1.03, STILL hasn't had the
Preferences printing
problem fixed. At least not with my A3000 and Canon BJ printer. The
only workaround is to save the drawing and print with another
application such as PageStream.
O
SysInfo 3.18
has a printed-report problem. All the figures are
there, but the formatting is rather messed up, with the numbers column
displaced further down the sheet.
OThere is a conflict between
AutoCLI 2.41
and
CrossDOS
as supplied
with Workbench 2.1 (probably v
5.x
). In particular, if the
mouse-freeze functions of AutoCLI are active and CrossDOS is started,
the mouse cursor cycles between frozen and unfrozen states with right
mouse button presses, and mouse left button operation is interrupted
altogether.
O
MegaView 1.0
may conflict with
DirectoryOpus 4.03
under certain
circumstances. On my AdRAM expanded, floppy-only A500 using
PowerPacked DirectoryOpus (even in an iconised state), trying to use
MegaView crashes the machine. The easiest workaround is to shut down
DOpus if intending to use MegaView (sometimes disguised as FullView eg
on MegaDisc).
Hint
To avoid the 'black page' problem of
PageStream [0moperating
under Kickstart 1.3, open it using
'Custom screen' [0m(with
appropriate colours, of course).
Thanks to Chris Hussey for the above information.
A1200 Incompatibilities
CGFonts and Final Copy II
For CG fonts you need WB2.1, and for Type 1 fonts you need WB1.3 or later.
To load up a Type 1 Postscript font into Final Copy (ie, has a .pfb
and .afm extension) just click on it. FC will automatically download the
font to a postscript printer for example.
