[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Help! Anybody use ScienTEX?

BP3@PSUVM.BITNET (Larry Belan) (07/17/87)

The Center here has had the program (Version 6.57) for about a year
and we're finally going to try to use it...
     
BUT
     
When it tries to print out the Scientific font our printer goes crazy.
The program is setup for the CGA board and the Epson LQ 1500 printer
and I'm trying to get get it to run on an LQ 1000.  The Campus doesn't
own any LQ 1500's so I'm not sure whether it's the printer causing
the problems with the down-loadable fonts.
     
I've also tried to contact the Dealer (Scientific Communications Corp.
in Philedelphia) but the number has been disconnected.
     
I'd really hate to inform my boss that this $7,000 software investment
is now worthless.
     
ANY help would be appreciated.
     
Please?
