[comp.text] Question on Unix V with HP LaserJet II

root@netdev.UUCP (Alex Huppenthal) (11/24/89)

  
  I've just attached an HP LaserJet II to the Unix V 3 system here. After
hacking the interface script it now defaults to the font and pitch we want.

  My Question:

      What does the group reccommend as a word processer/ document preparation
      system that will be compaible with this system? It has a PC-VGA 
      console. We have a several downloadable fonts.


      The hope-we-can-do-it list :


	o Select fonts without embedding <esc>(8012.1a.er etc.....
        o Download softfonts ( perhaps those we purchased for MSword/DOS??? )
        o Page Preview the documents on the console
        o Use downloaded, internal, and cartridge fonts 

     Nice items:
 
	o Revision control ( we have and use RCS  - any front-ends for this? )
        o Boiler Plate merge
        o Database interface
        
         
 Thanks,

 -alex
