I am running Pagemaker and MS-Windows on an AT-Clone with a Seagate 251 hard drive, a 2Mb Rampage (AST) card, and Moniterm Viking1. Nowhere in the Pagemaker or Windows documentation does it specifically say that these software packages will not run at the higher AT clock speeds. Furthermore, since the At is the recommended unit I can only assume that the packages were intended to run at all of the clock speeds. This assumption was probably my first mistake. Is anyone out there running these packages successfully at the higher clock speeds, do they run at the higher clock speeds, and if so can anyone shed any light on my problem? Also, does anyone know of any Envoy100 Bulletin Boards relating to Desktop Publishing, it's hardware and software, etc? ---------------------------------------- Submissions to: desktop%plaid@sun.com -OR- sun!plaid!desktop Administrivia to: desktop-request%plaid@sun.com -OR- sun!plaid!desktop-request Paths: {ihnp4,decwrl,hplabs,seismo,ucbvax}!sun Chuq Von Rospach chuq@sun.COM Delphi: CHUQ What do you mean 'You don't really want to hurt her?'

We are running Windows 2.03 along with PageMaker 1.0A on a Compaq 386 and a Televideo 386, both operating at 16 mhz. Used to run the old version of Windows (1.04) with the same version of PM on the same machines as well as a Telecat 286 operating at 8mhz with an St-251. "I feel the need for speed" crank that baby up as far as it can go. If your memory is fast enough it will be ok. We will be trying out Windows 386 in the next few days. Hope it still works with PM. -- Michael Duebner UUCP : ddsw1!michael Technical Services, Buffalo Grove, IL 312/541-6550 [Help is only a phone call away for members of AERA] ---------------------------------------- Submissions to: desktop@plaid.sun.com Administrivia to: desktop-request@plaid@sun.com UUCP: {amdahl,decwrl,hplabs,ihnp4}!sun!plaid!desktop{-request}

Hope it > still works with PM. I am running Aldus PageMaker 1.0a with MicroSoft Windows 386. The System is an AT&T 6386 WGS with a 16MHz clock, 135Mb hard disk with an EDSI card. I have had no problems. I would recommend that you read the README.TXT file (it is in the directory that you installed Windows 386 in), and the PostScript readme file that is on the driver disk (I believe it is disk number two). The only thing that I did was to convert the Bitstream screen fonts. I have a question of any PageMaker/Windows/PostScript user: PostScript knows the extended character set. PageMaker shows the characters of the screen. The PostScript printer (both a QMS 800-II and VT600 Plus) show the character as a dot. What is wrong? Is it the PostScript Driver? (PSCRIPT.DRV)? It happens with every driver that I have used. (Bitstream [I have two of these], Aldus, MicroSoft [I have two of these also].) -- ____ _______ _____ _______ ------- Clancy Malloy / __ \ |__ __| / _ \ |__ __| -====------ Unix System Administrator | (__) | | | \ \ \_\ | | -======------ ...!ihlpf!cem | __ | | | / \ __ | | --====------- IH 4A-245 x3946 | | | | | | | (\ / / | | ----------- AT&T Bell Labs |_| |_| |_| \_____/ |_| ------- Naperville, IL ---------------------------------------- Submissions to: desktop@plaid.sun.com Administrivia to: desktop-request@plaid@sun.com UUCP: {amdahl,decwrl,hplabs,ihnp4}!sun!plaid!desktop{-request}
