This has probably been asked a million times but does anyone know if there is any way to get font substitution to work with MacDraw II. I just want it to substitute Helvetica (which I can read on our Apple Laser Writer Plus) for Geneva (which I can read on the mac screen). Btw, don't tell me to use helvetica on the mac 'cause it prints differently to substituted Geneva on the laser writer (too cramped). We are talking System 6.0.2, MultiFinder and MacDraw II 1.0v2 here. Background printing and the printer options appear to make no difference. ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Mark Rawling

This and later versions add the ability to toggle the new Fractional Fonts feature of the ROMS using the preferences dialog. Whenever this is turned on (and pre 1.0v4 versions always had it on) font substitution is disabled. Warning: With Fractional Fonts turned off, MacDraw II is less WYSIWYG. >Mark Rawling Claris Corp. | Michael R.
