Word processors that print to PostScript file and embed fonts?
Talk about a niche question...
Is anyone aware of any Amiga WYSIWYG word processors that support both printing to PostScript files *and* embedding the type 1 fonts that were used in the output? This allows for the exact font used in the document to be output to the printer, and was a feature commonly available in later PC word processors in the PostScript/HP LaserJet era, but I'm not sure if an equivalent exists on Amiga. I have Final Copy II happily printing to PostScript files as-is, but as people that have used it know, the fonts do not map 1:1 to the printer as they convert internally to closest-match stock PostScript outline fonts. |

Self-answering in case anyone wonders in the future...Final Writer (only one year after Final Copy II!) added support for this, and it works great!
