- My brother was the original poster of this. We posted this because we could
- not find the SWDownload program in our Hard Drive. The original disks were
- left at home. But when we found it in the Hard Drive the solution was
- simple.
-
- Anybody out there interested in this KEEP READING. If not stop reading now.
-
- I used CMD to capture all output to the parallel.device to the RAM disk.
- ran SWDownload to download certain fonts.
- run CMD again and print the FC II document in postscript (You can also print
- to file and skip running CMD )
- I then uploaded the uploaded font to the school's Postscript printer by just
- copying it to the printer. Then I copied the postscript document to the
- printer.
-
- that's all there is to it. The output was excellent! Better than the output
- on my LJIIP.
