Although it is nice that MacWrite can print a document in sections,
that is not the best solution to a shortage of disk space. Create separate
MacWrite and MacPaint disks, each with its own copy of the system folder.
In addition, use the Font Mover to get rid of fonts that you don't need from
these disks. This will give you more than 100K free on each. If you keep
only documents you are currently working on on these disks and move old
stuff onto a separate disk for storage, which needn't have a system folder,
you probably won't have a space problem, unless you're writing a book.
Printing in tall adjust mode produces nicer looking output, but
requires putting paper in the printer in a special way and doesn't allow
widening the default margins. If you use pin hole paper, move the paper as
far to the right on the carriage as you can. If you use cut paper, the left
edge should be a little to the right of the left red marker on the paper
holder. Exact positioning of cut paper is difficult. The top of the page
should be at the top of the print head. Headers and footers will then do
what you expect them to do. If you use cut paper, use little or no header
and put the top of the page just under the rollers.
High quality mode is not always desirable. For example, Venice-12
looks just fine in standard mode. Geneva-12 is a good font for high quality
printing, because the characters are thin.
