------- Additional comments from [email protected] Wed Feb 3 08:56:48 +0000 2010 ------- mru, I'm glad you brought up AmiPro and WordPerfect and that the misuse of the term 'font' now comes from more correct use back then. While I have used WordPerfect and even helped teach it a *very* long time ago, I never actually like the interface. AmiPro was quite nice from what I remember. Older WP's like WordStar and Electric Pen didn't even mention 'font' I mention 'font' there, because back then it really was *font*. You could do some modifications like bold, underline or strikethrough, but you were stuck with the font on the daisywheel or selectric ball until it was physically changed. Some of the early laser printers had similar limitations, and actual *fonts* had to be loaded sometimes through physical cartridges. However, it's been ages and ages since those problems and most users even if they were around then have long since forgotten. Typefaces have been available as a separate choice for a very long time and regardless of long or short history, it is a list of typefaces that the menu in OOo is presenting the user. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
