Anybody else have this problem, and more importantly, know how to fix it? I
tried out the communications module in AWGS and discovered, much to my dismay,
that the font is rather screwed up. It seems to be shaston 14 point, or 18
point, so the characters all overlap and make each other completely unreadable.
This happens in the edit line, the session record section, and the status bar.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance,
Bill Dickson

Sounds like you don't have the right font. You HAVE to have Monaco 9. Other- wise, it's probably scaling Shaston-16 to 9 pt and doing a miserable job. AWGS ships with Monaco 9, but System 5.0 doesn't, so if you've been trying that, you probably need to copy the font off of your original system disk. Scott Lindsey |"Cold and misty morning.

What you are seeing is Shaston 9 as scaled by the Font Manager. -- Syd Polk | Wherever you go, there you are. jazzman@claris.com | Let the music be your light. GO 'STROS! | These opinions are mine.

Speaking of the Communications module, can we expect a fix so that the comm module will work when Appletalk is enabled under GS/OS 3.0? __________________________________________________________________________ |Disclaimer: Segmentation Fault: Core Dumped. | | | |Internet: REWING@APPLE.COM-----------------------Rick Ewing | |ApplelinkPE & MacNet Soon!------------------Apple Computer, Inc. | |Applelink: EWING--------------------100 Ashford Center North, Suite 100 | |Compu$erve: [76474,1732]--------------------Atlanta, GA 30338 | |GENIE: R.EWING1--------------------------TalkNet: (404) 393-9358 | |USENET: {amdahl,decwrl,sun,unisoft}!apple!rewing | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
