[comp.windows.ms] Problems

Hello.  Maybe I just don't understand what's going on, but Write
doesn't work as well as it used to.

Old setup: Windows/286 2.1, EGA, Epson 9-pin driver.
New setup: Windows 3.0/386, VGA, Epson 9-pin driver.

Under Windows 286/EGA, Write produced high resolution printer output,
the font sizes were normal, formatting worked correctly on the screen,
etc.

Now, under Windows 3.0/VGA, the sizes in the "Fonts..." dialog box
are all weird: for Helv, the sizes are 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, and 16, instead
of the 8, 10, 12, 14, 18, and 24 that show up in the control panel.
Formatting on the screen is not exact: sometimes justified text goes
beyond the right edge.  The characters on the printed page are the
same as the screen fonts, instead of the higher-resolution fonts I
used to get.

Can someone help?
