USING THE HP LASERJET III PRINTER
---------------------------------
If you use the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet III printer driver, 
version 31.3.89, and get unexpected results printing text 
with TrueType fonts, try enabling the Print TrueType as 
Graphics option. To enable this setting, select Print Setup 
from the File menu, click on the Options button, and check the 
Print TrueType as Graphics box. 


PRINTING TIP - SETTING UP YOUR DRAWING
--------------------------------------
For best results, select the printer that will be your final 
output device in Printer Setup before you start to draw.  
Changing printers after the fact can sometimes cause text to 
re-break to the letter widths of the new printer. 


PRINTING ROTATED TEXT USING THE PRINT TRUETYPE AS GRAPHICS OPTION
-----------------------------------------------------------------
If you experience unexpected results printing rotated text using 
an HP LaserJet or other PCL printer, try printing with the Print
TrueType as Graphics box checked. To enable this setting, select
Print Setup from the File menu, click on the Options button, and
check the Print TrueType as Graphics box.  


NON-BREAKING JUSTIFYING SPACEBAND
---------------------------------
Visio supports a non-breaking justifying spaceband.  To use this 
feature, make sure you have enabled the numeric keypad by 
pressing the Num Lock key, then hold down the Alt key and type
018 on the numeric keypad.  


ENHANCING PERFORMANCE
---------------------
For general information on enhancing your system's 
performance, please refer to Chapter 14, Optimizing Windows, 
in your Windows manual. 

Visio performs certain functions faster when a floating 
point math co-processor is available and enabled.


ZEOS 486-33 CPU & FLOATING POINT EXCEPTION
------------------------------------------
The Award BIOS 3.10, 452-005-01, found in some ZEOS 486-33 
machines and possibly in other computer makes and models as 
well, does not correctly handle floating point exceptions.  
As a result, floating point errors will cause these machines 
to hang (that is, to stop responding).  Floating point exceptions 
are most likely to be the result of a Union or Fragment 
operation.  If Visio displays an error message telling you that
a floating point exception has occurred, try to save your work 
(you may not be able to), then close Visio and Windows, and 
reboot your computer.

To correct this problem with the Award BIOS 3.10, 452-005-1, an 
updated BIOS is required.  ZEOS owners can contact ZEOS Technical 
Support at 612-633-7337 voice, 800-228-5390 toll-free, or 
612-633-4607 FAX.  Owners of other machines can contact the 
manufacturer of their machine. 


DISPLAYING AND INSTALLING TRUETYPE FONTS
----------------------------------------
If fonts in your dialog box don't display properly, check to 
see that your TrueType fonts are installed in the Control 
Panel.  To check for TrueType fonts:

-Open the Main program group in the Windows Program Manager.
-Double-click on the Control Panel icon.
-Double-click the Fonts icon.
-Make sure that (at a minimum) Arial TrueType fonts appear 
 in the list of installed fonts.  

To add TrueType fonts, if needed:

-Click on the Add button.
-If no fonts are displayed, select the System subdirectory
 from the Windows main directory.  A list of TrueType fonts
 will appear.
-Highlight TrueType font(s) to be added and click OK.
