You either don't have enough memory to render the image correctly at 360dpi,
or you don't have the right size fonts in your */SYSTEM/FONTS directory.

An easy solution to the memory problem would be to upgrade to at least 2 MB
from any reputable mail-order company.  Quality Computers comes to mind, but
there are other places with cheaper prices.

If you don't have the right sized fonts, try Pointless because then you will
be able to use fonts in all different sizes.  Pointless generates the font
you need, up to 255pt.

You need a font that is four times the size of the font on the screen for
printing to the StyleWriter.  If you are printing 12pt, you will need a copy
of the same font (with matching family ID, too) in 48pt.  Either you put this
other font in the font subdirectory, or you get Pointless because Pointless
will generate the 48pt font on-the-fly.

	Hope this helps,
