Re: Signature



Carl,

ME ME ME, I'm still using 3.58B, the principle reason being that I do only bulk text input with it, no formatting or printing at all.  All formatting and printing I do in Adobe Pagemaker, which has a Xy3 (but not a Xy4) import filter.

Not using Signature.

Two options: the easy one, useart of this is that it has far
superior font and print support than what was originally proposed
out-of-box.

FWIW, my strong recommendation: use one of Kari's installers. In addition to the improvements Kari mentions (which are major), it's a painless way to get up and running with vDosPlus, the hands-down best way to run XyWrite-for-DOS under 64-bit Windows.

Question: Is anyone actually using Signature for real work as a matter of preference over XyWrite 4 or earlier versions of XyWrite? Not trying to rekindle the flame wars of decades past; simply curious.
