switched printers -- now HelvObl prints with extra slant
Hi, I'm using FM 6.5, Mac, in Classic. I was printing to a Laserwriter Select 360, through an AsanteTalk bridge, and everything looked as it should. I've just switched to a Lexmark E120n laser printer. Now it prints Helvetica bold oblique and Helvetica oblique with an additional slant. (I have not checked if this is also happening with other fonts.) I've reinstalled the fonts, then installed a different version (from a colleague) of the fonts into the System 9 Fonts folder, and restarted FM, with no change. This also happened, before I switched the printers (machines), when I made pdfs from the FM files, either using a.) Save as, then Distiller, or b.) Print to file, then Distiller. It's probably something obvious, but I don't get it. Any ideas? Thanks, Louise Moritsugu

Thanks very much for your suggestions. I fixed it, a day and a half later, after installing the fonts through Font Book, not directly into the System 9 Fonts folder (which I thought I'd read somewhere was the same thing, but maybe not).

I always delete the TrueType Times, Helvetica, Symbol, etc., included with Mac OS 9 and replace with PostScript Type 1 versions.
