- Thats odd. I was told by 5th Generation that 2.1.1 will not work with system
- 7.1. I pulled the updater off Compuserve in anticipation of arrival of my
- new VX.
-
- Speaking of other 7.1 incomaptibilities:
-
- Mode 32 suppsoedly has some type of problem.
-
- Word 5.0a, Excel 4.0 and Works 3.0 all seem to work after a brief test by
- myself.
-
- Word 5.1 is suppose to be compatible.
-
- ATM will require 3.0 if you want to keep postscript fonts in the new Fonts
- Folder or if using 2.0.3 keep them in the Extensions folder or with the
- fonts suitcases if using Suitcase 2.1.2.
-
- More 128 font suitcases are not allowed in the new Fonts Folder. So if you
- have more than 128 fonts (without Suitcase) you will need Font/DA mover 4.1
- (I thought we didn't need that nasty anymore!) to combine fonts into fewer
- than 128 suitcase.
