[comp.windows.ms] Fonts, Printer Drivers and something else

pcb@gator.cacs.usl.edu (Peter C. Bahrs) (07/26/90)

1) Fonts.  I am redoing our application for win3.0 and just heard from a user
that our old application under win386 used to screw up its fonts every time
excel was used right before it.  Any comments?

2) This irritated me with old windows...  WHOSE PRINTER DRIVERS DO I USE?
   Should each package (i.e. pagemaker, designer, winword, ...) use their
   own supplied printer drivers?  Can I interchange them?  

   I remember with win386 I had 4 versions of a paintjet driver...some
   were real flakey.

3)  Is there a windows program that will interpret and display
    troff/eqn/tbl type files.  Hopefully a word processor or editor.
