Subject:Help! Excess Fonts in FrameMaker4 From:Peter Khu <KHUP -at- QUCDN -dot- QUEENSU -dot- CA> Date:Mon, 14 Feb 1994 13:50:06 EST
Dear Techwr-l
I wonder if any of you have experienced problems with fonts and FrameMaker4. I
have more fonts than will appear on a single screen and when I try to select a
font from the FORMAT-FONT pull down menu, there does not seem to be any way to
scroll through a list of available fonts. I see only as many as will fit on
screen. I can, however, acess other fonts as long as I can count from the last
visible one the the font I want. This means that I need a font list in front
of me at all times.
FrameMaker 3 on the same system does not have this problem. The FORMAT-FONT
pull down menu is equipped with a scroll bar.
If you have any helpful advice, please send me a note at KHUP -at- QUCDN -dot- QUEENSU -dot- CA -dot-
