Re: death to word



Oh, in that case, maybe you could pull the file into Xy for
the print-out stage?
I should have been more exact--what I meant by fully scaleable typesetting is the ability to set both the pitch and the width of the type.  Some years ago now, a publisher asked me for camera-ready copy, sent me his standard specs., & Xy allowed me to produce a page every bit as good as his because of  the fully scaleable typesetting.  The command is still available in NB, but it doesn't work because--I guess--printing now goes through Windows instead of DOS, and one's stuck with what Windows will do.  So for really professional typesetting and formatting one has to go to a full publishing program, whereas XY used to do it all.
