[comp.sys.mac.system] Using ATM and/or Freedom Of Press with System 7

I'm having trouble using ATM (v2.0) and Freedom Of Press (v3.0.1,Light)
with System 7. With ATM the problem is that it seems to croak in 32-bit
mode. With Freedom Of Press it seems not to work at all. That is to say,
it looks like it's going through all the right motions, but the printer
never budges, although the Page Setup and Print dialogs are put through
their paces. Printer is an HP DeskWriter, non-AppleTalk. Mac is a IIsi.

I have used FofP under system 6.0.7 using LaserWriter 6.0.1, so I
don't think it's pilot error.  Using LaserWriter 6.1 (so that I can
use TrueType) under system 6.0.7 doesn't work in the same way that
LaserWriter 7.0 doesn't work.

Has anyone used FofP under system 7.0? If so, have you any ideas as to
what I'm doing wrong? How about under 6.0.7? With TrueType?

Any solution for running ATM in 32-bit mode? Rumors (or facts) of a
32-bit clean version? Since my DeskWriter is one of the original ones
that doesn't support AppleTalk, I can only use it under system 7 in
32-bit mode...

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments or advice,
Scott
