- I'm not sure if this will help, but a problem that seems to crop up
- pretty regularly is that two fonts that the W4W Equation Editor
- needs (Fences and Extra, as I remember) are not installed correctly
- by Setup. You can check and see if you have this problem by pull-
- ing up the Fonts menu in Control Panel. If you select those fonts
- and get no sample characters, they haven't been properly installed.
- In that case, you'll need to delete them (without removing them
- from the desk and reinstall them from right there in the Control
- Panel. Perhaps the printing problem crops up because the needed
- fonts weren't available in the first place. I hope this helps.
