- HELP!! I have been battling this problem for several months..
-
- Whenever I try to print a document from any app (except by dragging
- a textfile to the !Printers icon) it is offset by ~3cm down and ~7mm
- across the page - the bottom and right of the page is cut off! I
- have tried everything, even manual editing of the prolog files
- (which I know little about), and comparing them to the RO2 ones,
- which *work fine*.
-
- I have the standard RO3.1 !Printers app and a "General Computer
- 'Business Laserprinter'" which supposedly boasts 100% Adobe PS
- compatability.
-
- Another problem I have is that no font downloading AT ALL works -
- neither D/Ling before a job nor the supposedly "automatic" D/L of
- unknown fonts. If I'm lucky the font will appear in Courier, of
- course with the wrong metrics.
-
- I heard of someone else with this prob - TMOTA? - but he solved it
- by upgrading from the RO3.0 !Printers to the RO3.1 app.
-
- I have a 310, 2Mb, RO3.1 and (if it really matters) an Acorn SCSI card.
-
- Any help would be **VERY** gratefully appreciated!
-
- Tony.
