[comp.text] MS Word 5.0 Printer Driver for Corona 300 Laser Printer

ims@csli.Stanford.EDU (Univ of Stuttgart) (12/21/89)

We would very much like to use an old Corona 300 Laser Printer
for printing MS Word 5.0 documents. Unfortunately it seems not
to be the case that this printer
is supported. The printer driver from older versions of Word
only allows us to use the built-in fonts, but lacks  the
capability of supporting the downloading of soft fonts.

Since in some of our applications it is necessary to use customized
fonts, we would need the download capability from inside word, too.

(The font downloading process works fine with the 
software supplied by Corona)

Does anyone out there know, whether
the way Corona defines their fonts in a way compatible to, say
HP soft fonts, or whether there exists a conversion tool to the latter,
such that we could use the Printer Driver utility that comes with the HP 
soft fonts.

Responses via email would highly be appreciated, since it is not a simple
task for us  to access this newsgroup.

Thanks very much in advance for any help.
