[net.text] DWB

I realize this subject has been on the net before, but I never saw a
final answer.  What I would like to know is:

	1.  Does DWB (ditroff) have support for the imagen 8-300?
	    I know it has imagen 100 or something like that but we have
	    recently purchased an imagen 8-300 and would like the
	    ditroff fonts and driver for it.
	    There was a mention in one artice that AT&T did have it in
	    in the Sept. release of DWB.  Is this true?  Is this new
	    release worth while getting, or is it the same as the older
	     version?

	2. If this is not true, is there anyone out there that has made
	   modifications to the drivers/fonts/rastertables to get the
	   proper size text.  Because I am new at making such changes,
	   how did you do it and to what?  Is it possible to get them
	   from you?

I realize Imagen has the drivers and fonts for around $1000 and AT&T has
DWB for  $548 (Canadian)
Please send responses either thru net.text or preferably mail me directly

I also would be interested in any discussion concerning DWB and
the Imagen 8/300. I have just purchased and received DWB and did
not see any such connection to the Imagen. In the case of no further
information on this topic I will be contacting Imagen for purchase
of this interface. I'm less concerned about the purchase price than
I am about the version their interface may have been written for (4.2).
Any information would be appreciated.
