Pretty interesting.I looked at Provision stuff probably about a year ago and
there were some gaps that ensured that it wouldn't fit in our environment
but I just took another look and it seems like they've closed some of those
gaps. Is anyone using their entire suite/some of their products and if so
what has you're experience been?

I don't know if Screwdrivers has this but Provision networks Print-It does.
It has intelligent font embedding... (ie only fonts that don't already exist
on the client are embedded in the print job) This keeps the print job size a
lot smaller.

While discussing printing.what are folks doing about fonts? Do any of the
third party printing products solve the "font" problem? Where if you don't
have the fonts installed on the local client the document fails to print? I
know Thinprint has some solutions that will do the trick but there are trade
offs...does Screwdrivers eliminate font problems?

I am planning to trial ScrewDrivers v4. I looked at in earlier in the year
but decided to hold off. The recent brash of printing related problems I've
been having, and long going ones with random printers not being mapped is
pushing me to the edge. A Budget is already approved to make a purchase of
the product, if it solves our problems.
I understand the fact that I need to deploy a client, but I'm not concerned
with that anymore. I'm just concerned with the product working as
advertised and getting rid of printing headaches. For those that have used
v4, have you found this to be the case and the investment worthwhile?
