[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Adobe Type Manager vs Postscript

fbalady@tronsbox.xei.com (Fred Balady) (06/29/91)

I am interested in buying a DTP system soon but I am a little confused
on a certain topic.  I will most probably be getting a Laserjet IIp and
and IBM comp.  Someone suggested to me to get the Adobe Type Manager instead
of the optional Postscript cartridge for the laserjet.  I know what postscipt
is but I don't understand what the type manager does.  Which has better
quality using the IIp? Which is faster? Easier to use? I know that the 
cartidge comes with 40 built in fonts and extra ram for downloadable fonts,
but which is a better buy in the long run for me?
