THE PRINT SHOP: STILL AROUND Does anyone know if Print Shop GS, or
any """""""""""""""""""""""""""" other Print Shop spinoffs for the
Apple II, \
are
still available for purchase?
I just got an e-mail from a teacher in Tulsa, OK, who had his original
Print Shop GS disks stolen from his classroom. Apparently, no backups.
He's wanting to know how/if he can get new copies of the disks.

Max,
National School Products (800-289-3960 Fax; 800-627-9393 voice) has The
New Print Shop, The Print Shop (original) and several add on Print Shop
\
programs and
disks in their current 94 page all Apple II catalog. I see Print Shop
IIGS Expansion Library but not Print Shop IIGS itself. Sometimes they
have \
things
not shown in the catalog. Worth a call.

I know an Apple dealer who had one on the shelf less than 2 weeks ago.
\
I'll be
over that way again within a week (or whenever my TranswarpGS is ready)
\
and I
can check if it's new or re-wrapped and verify the price. Seems I
remember \
it
being $25-$35. Email me if you want me to pursue it for you.

TULIN TUMBLES Monday, January 20, 1997 - 7:57 pm
"""""""""""""
I received an email from Wing Cheung today in response to email that I
had \
sent
to Tulin. Tulin is no longer in the drive business. Wing is a former
\
employee
of Tulin, who has acquired their left over hard drive and floptical
stock. \
He
asked me to post his offering here.
He is offering refurbished Insite flopticals for sale:
$50 for a bare floptical drive, suitable for an internal drive or
to put in your own case
$80 for a fully set up floptical drive in an external case
He also has some hard drives but requests people contact him specifying
what they want and he will quote a price.
He can be reached via email at: 104465.3171@COMPUSERVE.COM@INET#
Be patient if he does not reply right away. We have exchanged two
messages so far and it has taken him a couple of weeks to reply each
time.
MT Steve
P.S. That's all I know. Contact Wing for further info.

DO-IT-YOURSELF .FL FILES Don, Bob: Sometime when I first acquired the
"""""""""""""""""""""""" LaserJet (1/95?) I did upload a Harmonie .FL
\
file for
it but doubt that is what I am using today. I presently have TT/PCL \
mappings as
follows: Courier/Courier(22), Garamond/Garamond(156),
Geneva/Omega(3), Arial/Arial(19867), Monoco/UniversMed(4),
Symbol/Symbol(23), Times/CGTimes(20), ZapfChanc/Marigold(18),
ZapfDing/Wingdings(13), Aspire/Coronet(2418). The numbers represent IIGS
font families in decimal. \
These
typefaces now print instantly via Harmonie EXTERNAL without the long \
dreadful
delays.
Am sure the mix of built-in fonts is different on the InkJets, but the
\
principal
is probably the same. Basically each entry in the xxx.FL table looks
like \
this:
(For example, Aspire)
byte 0-1 Family number in HEX 72 09
byte 2 Length of print command 0A
byte 3-n Print command in CHAR <esc>(slp4116T
Don't forget the GS's bizarre need for placing the L/O byte of family \
number in
the rightmost position (as in 2418 = 0972 above) ;^{ You will need a
block editor of some sort to set this up properly.

I suppose if you could find a bit mapped or TT font for LetterGothic,
you \
could
simply replace the family ID for Geneva (03 00 in bytes 0-1) with
whatever \
is
correct for LetterGothic in the xxx.FL table you are using. See previous
\
post.

The manual calls it [Apple II 3.5 Disk Controller Card], so I'd say
yes.

I don't think that's true:( There is an "Apple II 3.5" Disk Controller
Card" that is used for "non-SuperDrive" 3.5" disk drives.
