[amayausers] Re: Small fonts

Marty,
I have another commitment and have to run, but, what kind of problems and
what fonts are you using and how small are we talking?
Do you have editing/digitizing capabilities? Have you taken any digitizing
training? Have you been to the Melco training  classes.  Need to know some
information and then maybe have tricks for you to try....gotta go for now,
later............>>>>>>.

Jack,
Thanks for your explanation. Your machine and your experience is a testament
to just how well these machines can/will run...Thanks
