Joe,

I believe you.

I just can't believe that no one out there has the gear to do a test run.

Well, I'm going to be sending out an order for Harmonie soon.  And I'm
currently on the heels of a parallel card.  And I've got both AWGS and AW.
As soon as I put everything together, I'll do some empirical print-tests;
unless, someone else decides to take the burden.

Of course, at my current rate, I wouldn't be able to do any kind of
comprehensive testing anytime soon.

In the meantime, Supertimer is right.  I'm just trying to hammer out the
kinks.  I remember trying to print WYSIWYG on the IW was hard enough.  I
vaguely remember that you had to print it condensed just for it to come out
normal.  (I haven't printed anything on the GS in 8 years...  --cobwebs-- )

Now with this 4x font thing.  Do I reformat the document before I shoot it
out?  I don't remember any 4x option.  And do I still have to condense
t?  -oh boy-  It's obvious Apple never bothered fixing this mess.  I wonder
why not.  And I'm suprised there hasn't been a third party solution for all
this confusion.
