We will probably have to resort to either physical pastup or an electronic

Get MultiDOS.  Much better (i.e. it actually works in all systems... not  
arbitrarily on  some systems like MSH).  Also lets you access the IBM disk  
as DF0: as well as the Amiga disk.  Works fine for me under 2.04 (should  
be ok under 2.05 as well).

I am having some trouble with a Public Domain program called Post.
It is a postscript interpreter I picked up from wuarchive...  

The problem seems to be that post can't seem to obtain the font that
I am using.  It displays small black blobs in place of each letter.
I am using an A3000 and an Epson FX printer, and the two pieces of
software Post has been doing this for are ProWrite 3.2, and Pro. Page
3.0 (love this program!!) 

When I print from ProPage and ProWrite I output to a file on the ram:
and then use post to create a printout or IFF file.  The command I use-

post init.ps ram:test.ps IFF t:test*.pic SIZE b

This works fine except for the trouble with it not printing the actual
characters.

I would really appreciate any help with this problem.

You can probably ask VRLI.  I also got the 4.0 upgrade offer, but
nothing for 4.1.  On the other hand, their latest order form lists 4.1
as the most recent Distant Suns available.

If I remember correctly, 4.1 was supposed to be faster than 4.0.  I
think I'll just wait for a version which supports AGA before upgrading.
If you really want 4.1, give VRLI a call and ask 'em.

Read the documentation you obtained with Post.  It explicitely states that it
does *not* come with any fonts.  There are some fonts on wuarchive but they are
not great quality.  For the orginal Adobe fonts, purchase Adobe Type Manager
for the IBM PC and use CrossDos (or MessyDos) to copy the font files to
psfonts:

I'm very impressed with the XPK package and the XFH and XPK-handler
file systems. BUT how reliable are they?

If you use/have used either of these, I would appreciate you thoughts.

1. Have you ever lost data?
2. Was it obnoxious in any way?
3. Would you do it differently if given another chance?
4. Which handler would you recommend?
5. Do you back up your data in the compressed format?

I'd suggest you take a look at Contact. It allows you to maintain
a list of names and addresses, and automatically dial the phone,
print address labels and exchange data with other applications.
It is available from Consultron in the U.S.A. and has been reviewed
in AmigaWorld this year (the July issue, I think).

I have a couple of questions about Provector that I hope someone can
answer.  Also, if there are any general likes or dislikes you have regarding
the product, I would really like to hear about them.

  1. For text, what type of fonts does it use?  Postscript?
     Compugraphic? Both? Other?  Are any fonts included with the package?  

  2. What are the options for printing?  Postscript?  Any preferences 
     printer? If it can print to any preferences printer, is it at the full
     printer resolution or is it at screen resolution mapped to the
     printer resolution?

Thanks

Actually, ProPage can do two-ups and have the proper page numbering through
its disable page eject feature.  Just layout pages half as small, and
shifting even pages over and disabling page eject for odd pages in the
Postscript Output Specs.  While you work on each page, everything works
like an ordinary page, and then when you print, voila!  Two-ups to go!

This doesn't even come close to solving the problem of printing, say 100-
page booklets folded down the middle of 8.5"x11" pages, though.

Since I started this discussion, I thought I'd comment
at this point.  I did get Multidos and it does work for me
under 2.05.  I was initially reluctant to use it because
when I tried it under 1.3 I could never get it to work.
Every time I tried to read a PC disk my system crashed.
One thing I found under 2.05 was that I didn't have to
add anything to the Mountlist file which I thought was
mandatory under 1.3.  Anyway, its working for me now although
I have seen enough reports of it not working for other people
under ill-defined conditions that I'm watching things
carefully.  Fortunately I mostly use it for transferring
lha files so there is a built in CRC integrity check.

Wow. I never thought I'd hear this - Undo not important in productivity
software!

Well, I suppose that if you never got used to it, you wouldn't miss it so
much, but I would trade LOTS of features for Undo.

Pro Page didn't get Undo until version 2 or 3, and I don't know how many
times I moved something just a bit too far and couldn't cancel it
afterward (they had an escape WHILE you were moving it, but that's not
too useful after you've committed yourself.

The nice thing about Undo, really, is being able to try something out,
decide that you don't like it, and revert with one keypress/command.

I can understand *some* people not wanting it much, but for the publisher
of a word processor to take this position is inexplicable to me. Heck,
one-step Undo isn't even hard to code for. Oh well, if people really *do*
want Undo, I suppose they'll make themselves known to the developers...

Count me in as another person who would like to see a XXX.amos
newsgroup (although I can't help anyone start one).

BTW, I have heard a lot of talk about AMOS Pro, but can anyone tell me
the specific imporvements that have been made over AMOS 1.3?  I bought
AMOS only a few months ago (and I love it already).  Can I upgrade to
AMOS Pro without having to buy the whole system ( such as at a reduced
price or something)?

	Thanks
