I don't believe it is possible to get good printouts from the current
version of Voyager. The best I have had is screen dumps at screen
resolution (not printer resolution).
If I ask for ASCII printout I get 36pt Courier - a complete mess.
Other Amiga programs can print (PPaint, PageStream, ProDraw, DeLuxe
Music, etc etc).
Perhaps Voyager 3 will join them. Maybe the printer drivers in WB3.5
will help. It should do both PostScript and non-PostScript printing, at
printer resolution, such as 600dpi, rather than 72dpi. To get the best
results it would be necessary to specify an outline font for printing
as well as a screen font for viewing. These can be the same if you have
bitmaps for the small sizes of an outline font - for instance, if you
have a drawer called Triumvirate containing the XHelvetica fonts.
