- Dear Poul and other beta-printing experts:
-
- It has been extremely encouraging to follow today's discussion on
- laser printers. I am waiting for transatlantic shipment of Lingua
- and all, but have never seen the information sheets from out late
- Dragonfly, and therefore was not aware of the additional font
- problem.
-
- My question is: HOW ABOUT 24-PIN MATRIXPRINTERS?
- I have been a happy owner of the NEC P6 PLUS for years, but real-
- ize that I have a dissertation printing problem. I posted the
- following query to the list back in April 28 with no response,
- and now wonder whether there is any pending information avail-
- able.
- So this was the message:
- At my university Macintosh has conquered all, and accordingly
- dissertations are to be printed on Laserwriter. We are required
- to hand in a finished print out, using Times Romans 14 for
- text, 12 for blocks, 10 for notes, and 24 and 18 for outline
- points. The page size has to be 160 x 245 mm, which will be
- reduced to 75 %.
- Here are my questions then:
- 1. Will Lingua allow me to download anything else than pt 10 and
- pt 12 for printing with my Nec?
- 2. Is there anything I should order for my Nec in addition to my
- new Lingua?
- 3. Are there any commercial programs that will allow you to
- imitate post script or scalar fonts on a matrix from NB?
-
- I do appreciate any suggestions - otherwise I will have to borrow
- HPIIIP for the week-ends, which will be a bit of a nuisance
