If you use OOo, you need to do a little hex-hacking so the A2like font
name isn't  1st  on the Win(98se) fonts list. ( I chng'd it to Apple2)
(OOo 'special chars' tool gets trashed).
I use Sweet16 to run my automobile shop & print the bills on a Canon
usb printer via Windows as an Apple 2 (w/slashed 0's)

Where exactly in the file do you change that. I changed every instance
of A2like in ASCII and Unicode and it still displays it in the font folder
as "A2like".  Is it encrypted or something???
