Title: Amiga Forever Printing Wordworth 7
Post by: Scratcher on October 04, 2024, 08:05:36 AM

Hi All,

I have done a search, and I can't find this mentioned here.

I am trying to print from Amiga Forever, Wordworth 7, the best I can do is get a sheet that is half width (i.e. the page prints the full height of the sheet, but squeezes the page to the laft half of the sheet).

My settings are:
EpsonQ emulation in AF,
EpsonQ print setting,
A4,
Portrait.

I have tried using a landscape and A4 page setting, no joy.

I have tried postscript, but can't seem to get anythin to print, not even a print file.

Other programs print correctly.

Any ideas?

Cheers

You need Ghostscript. The specific version i.e 32 or 64bits (depends from UAE version)
Then select Postcript (Emulation Ghostscript required)
And finally, use postscript in your program.

I'm going to sound like a right idiot.

But I have installed GS and set postscript for the emulator and for the program, but thes no output, is there set-up of GS to do?

Thanks for the advice.

You just need to install the right version. If you have the 32bit UAE, then 32bit ghostscript.
And set postscript in the program settings.
I can't remember if I did test WW, but Final Writer worked fine when I did.
