Result? Courier. Any ideas? This is Word 4.0 Acad. A lot of the word printer drivers also have a .ini file that they send to the printer first when printing direct to a printer, but do not write to disk when you print to disk, so when you print the file that you created, you need to first send the .ini file. Look for files with the name of the printer driver followed by .ini, and copy that to your floppy, then when you print, print the .ini, then your printfile. Example (uses POSTSCRP driver) I print to file foo.ps I send foo.ps and POSTSCRP.ini to work computer At work, I print POSTSCRP.ini and foo.ps, VOILA!
