TOPIC ---------------------------------------------
A person using Music Writer software on an Apple IIGS wants to print to a
LaserWriter IINTX in the Sonata font, which Music Writer uses. How do you
do this? Can you use fonts other than Courier and Times with AppleWorks
2.0?
DISCUSSION ---------------------------------------------
Music Writer uses Pyware's own music font. It is similar to Adobe's Sonata
font, but not from Adobe. The font is included with Music Writer. To print to
any member of the PostScript LaserWriter family, make the usual ProDOS 16 or
GS/OS printer choice. Then, from Music Writer, select the print command. The
musical score then can be printed on the LaserWriter.
To use other fonts with AppleWorks requires PostScript programming knowledge.
Beyond the changes mentioned, font selection for ProDOS 8 applications relies
on changing the ImageWriter Emulator (IWEM) PostScript code. The font to be
used is designated within the IWEM downloadable PostScript file.
