Recently I installed my new copy of Word for Windows. Microsoft has a setup program which also updates your Windows/286 files and drivers. It doesn't ask you! Anyway, after printing something to my postscript printer, an Apple Laserwriter NTX, I got a printer error of Stack Overflow on the command "aload" which is load an array. The array was the ANSIVec which holds some character remaps and defs I believe. The file it produced was also poorly written with fewer <CRLF> than I am use to seeing in a PS file for these printers. I reinstalled my old PS driver and the problem went away. If anyone has any info on this, please email me and I will post a summary to the net.

A related hardship: after installing on my system, w/ Win386, the PostScipt driver would only print Courier to my IBM Personal PagePrinter. Changing the printer to an Apple Laserwriter within the driver yielded the other fonts, but the print quality suffered. Needless to say, I reinstalled the old PostScript driver ASAP. _____ Don Meyer Internet: dlmeyer@uiuc.edu disclaimer: How could UIUC policy possibly agree with me?

I have been using the postscript printer driver dumping the postscript commands to a file and then uploading the file to a computer that is interfaced to a QMS ColorPrinter 100. The results are just great except for the problem that what I see on the screen tends to get clipped on the printout. I remember this has been discussed on the net previously so please forgive me. Has anyone else seen this behavior? If so, what is the fix? I have downloaded the latest PS driver from cica. Kevin M. Reilly reilly@bnlux1.bnl.gov

Are the margins set correctly? ... if I remember, this printer has terrible margins (over an inch on the left/right sides) ... other wise I am not sure what you might be running into. leoh@hdw.csd.harris.com Leo Hinds (305)973-5229 Gfx ... gfx ... :-) whfg orpnhfr V "ebg"grq zl fvtangher svyr lbh guvax V nz n creireg ?!!!!!!? ... znlor arkg gvzr
