[comp.sys.mac] Fractional widths in MWII and other Qs

newbery@rata.vuw.ac.nz (Michael Newbery) (05/09/89)

Does MacWrite II support fractional widths?
Does it support the Script Manager?
Can you make the Fonts menu appear in the system font (so the names
of dingbats, pi and non-roman fonts are legible.)
Does it correctly default to A4 paper size/centimeters if the INTL/itl<n>
resources say the system is Metric?

Not as far as I know.

Unfortunately, not yet.

If the Printing Manager correctly defaults to a metric print record, yes.
Otherwise, no.  We use whatever the system gives us.
