Change the eps first line from 3.0 to 2.0 (%PSAdboe 2.0 etc). Open the eps file  
with Word but don't forget to save it as ascii file.

Hope it helps.

I highly recommend Quickeys v2.2.1.  I use it all the time..VARIOUS types of

And I have used it wil sys7.x for many months with no conflicts.

I have an Apple 8*24 card in my Mac II, and MAZ 1.4.3 works just fine on it. I
suspect the problem is that MAZ is incompatible with the IIsi. Didn't the MAZ

Arman, the two programs that I would look into would be Reunion and PAF.
Reunion is a hypercard based program and PAF is genealogy software from the

Date: 29 Sep 92 01:48:52 GMT
Organization: NIST

I have been occasionally having trouble with Word 5.0(a) running low
on memory.  The sequence usually involves cutting and pasting from one
document to another.  For example tonight I wrote a one page document
and then opened a new untitled document.  I selected all from the first
document (probably 15 lines of text) and went to paste into the new untitled
document.  A warning message popped up stating "Running Low on memory
save open documents" or something similar.  The paste failed.  I tried
the paste again and it succeeded.  I then saved the open documents and examined
my memory situation using Swatch.  I had a few programs open (NSCA telnet,
Word, TrashMan Engine, Applicon and the Finder) each had what appeared to 
be a reasonable amount of free space in it's partion.  In particular Word
had about 200K free (I have been running Word in 1024 partion).  Does anyone
know where this error is coming from?

It would be fairly easy just to stick in 2MB SIMMs. I believe it
is an architectural limitation, not of the 68000 but of the Plus and

Reply-To: peterc@cubetech.com
Distribution: world

I know there's some program or other that will make my font menu hierarchial.
What's its name and where can I find it?  Also, with 7.1 superseding
Suitcase, is there anything else that will display my font menu in
its respective fonts?  And what's the best combination of the two?
(ie: is there something that'll also display the hierarchies in their
typefaces, etc.)

If you don't know what I mean by hierarchial font menu:

 -----------
| Chicago   |
| Geneva    |---------
|#Times####>| Bold    |
| Zapf Zapf | BoldItal|
 -----------|#Italic##|
            | Regular |
            | Outline |
             ---------
(When you have different fonts in the same family...)  Or is there
something that just combines all members of the family into one name?
Like if I have "Times Bold", "Times BoldItalic", "Times Italic", "Times
Regular", and "Times Outline", it would just put up "Times" and then
depending on the style I select from the style menu, it would use
the proper font?  Is this already done somehow?  I dislike unsightly
redundant font menus (especially with 200+ different font families
which end up as 800+ "separate" fonts)

but was rather surprised to find that the source is not available anywhere,

	Howdy!

	I am having problems in several areas and decided to let experts
  have a shot at handling them.

	For one, I work for a company with alot of of workstations.  We would
  like to take one of the RGBs from a workstation and hook it into a Mac for
  24-bit color.  Does anyone know of any cards for the Mac (IIfx and/or IIci)
  that will give you 24-bit on an RGB monitor (i.e., SGI, SUN, TEK, HP, etc)?

	Secondly, I have CD-ROM drives for Sun and SGI... can I use them on
  my Mac (IIsi)?  How do I hook them up?  I have an external APS drive that
  has SCSI out and I think I can chain it, but do the new SGI drives have
  a format different than the Mac?  Huh?

	Lastly/Thirdly, I am trying (desperately) to get Eudora to work on our
  Mac(s).  I am experimenting with a Classic (6.0.7), a Cayman Gatorbox CS, and
  a SUN Sparc (as the server).  We have POP-3 running on the Sun, we are using
  MacTCP on the Mac, but I can't seem to get the thin to work.  I start up as
  myself, type my password, it says "finding out local network information",
  finding wavefront.wti.com (Sparc Server) and then it says...

	"Server not responding.  The connections came up halfway and then
		failed"  {185082}

	If you know the answer to any of these questions, please reply VIA
  E-MAIL!!!  I am not subscribed to this discussion group.

	Mail me at...

We are having a problem with AfterDark working properly with System 7
file sharing, both on server and clients. In both cases the symptoms
include Afterdark shutting down (uninstalling itself) when it goes
to blank the screen and file services are busy.  On clients this is
annoying, but by setting system IQ the problem can be avoided for the
most part.  On the "server" the problem is more difficult since we
don't want system IQ on because we want AfterDark blanking and password
protecting the machine even though sharing is busy.  Also, the symptoms
on the server are more severe, including loss of ability to mount floppy
disks and munging of the cursor and the windowing/graphports in finder
going hayware on occasion, IF AfterDark quits.  Very unsettling.

We are using System 7.0.1 with Tuneup 1.1.1 on IIci and AfterDark 2.0v.
Not much else except MacTCP.  Connections are over Ethertalk.  We have
no other problems with AppleTalk or TCP services.  Is this a known bug
with AfterDark?  Work around?  Another product to replace it?  Mostly,
we want the password protection.  Will using AppleShare 3.0 on the server
improve or degrade the situation?

It's out. If you bought yours since June 15th (I think), you are entitled 
to a free upgrade, but must send them a copy/FAX of the dated sales 
receipt. Otherwise, upgrade is $19.95.

I've never had any problems with Salient's customer support when I've 
called before, so can only assume the difficulties you're having are due 
to the transition to Fifth Generation.

But there is a great solution: Fifth Gen. has a toll-free customer 
service/sales/tech support number: 1-800-766-7283.

I gave them a call yesterday, waited about a half minute before getting a 
representative, requested an upgrade (credit card), and they are shipping 
it air-express to arrive later today! Their salesperson was extremely 
helpful and friendly and also managed to track down my old Suitcase 
license so that I could get that updated as well.

Good luck!

Ok, I'll bite.  What's does Textures offer that OzTeX (public domain

There's been sufficient demand shown in mail to me (and some postings in

However, beyond the "Style sheet thing," I need help settling on subjects to
cover.  So, let's hear it:  what aspects of Word still make no sense to you,
even after you've Read the Fine Manual?  I'd like to get general questions,
that is, "how do I use the Glossary" rather than "what is the difference
between the "date" and "print date Glossary entries," mostly because there
are far too many questions of the latter type for me to answer. :-)

I'll close, a la ESPN, with "something you may not know" about Word: try an
option-drag to select an arbitrary rectangular region in a document.  Better
yet, Copy that selection and then Paste it into the middle of the document
somewhere. :-)
