Sorry to have to post this on both c.s.m and c.s.m.h, but I am not certain if I have a hardware or software problem. On my IIci with the Apple Color Monitor, running 6.0.4 system software, 5 megs of ram, and the version 6.0 LaserWriter driver software (color printer version), I have a problem when using the font SuperHEBREW, published by Linguist's Sftware, Inc. The consonants will display correctly, but the vowels will not display at all (they print ok). The vowels are put in place within the font itself by "Automatic Backspacing Overstrike keys." Everything works on my SE, but these backspacing overstrike characters will not display. Is this a known phenomenon of the ci, or the color monitor, or is it a bug with the monitor. This problem happens in MacWrite II and in Word 4.0. Any suggestions or hints will be appreciated.
