I love the new 24-pin dot-matrix drivers on cica. The output is *much*
better than that of the stock Windows driver. However, I think there might
be a small problem with them. All of my output is now shifted about 1/2"
to 3/4" closer to the left-hand margin; so centered text is not really
centered, etc.
I'm using the drivers with WfW 1.1 and ATM 1.0. Any suggestions?

My complaints too about the centering - great but... And also where could one get/make more font files?

I'm using the drivers with WfW 1.1 and ATM 1.0 as well and I'm not able to reproduce the problem. What printer are you using? Are you sure you have the page size set up correctly? -- amf@ecs.soton.ac.uk Dr. Andrew Fountain Tel: +44 703 592831 Dept of Electronics and Computer Science Fax: +44 703 593045 University of Southampton Telex: 47661 SOTONU G Southampton SO9 5NH England

This is an incredibly good yet simple package! The largest improvement is
gained by simply using the 24-pin fonts that are part of the package.
These are very nicely done.. are there more forthcoming?
The printer driver itself is also a very clever piece of code, and sure
enough, the output *really does* look nicer than the MS driver, even when
both are using the same 24-pin fonts.
In summary and IMHO, an Excellent contribution to the net.
