015- I have a problem with getting fonts recognized. I
copied the entire contents of one PRODOS Volume (named
"AA") to another hard drive with a different volume name
for use on another GS.
When I launch AWGS or any other GS word processor on the second
GS, I am told to "insert disk AA" when a font is requested. Is
this a Pointless problem? A Typeset problem? Should I reinstall
the fonts or what?
Reinstalling them should make them work but an easier thing to try first is
to go into the FONTS folder inside the SYSTEM folder and trash the 2 files
called TrueType.List and Font.Lists. When you restart your computer it will
search through your Fonts folder and rebuild these lists. This is the procedure
to use if you install fonts by dragging to the folder instead of using an
installer.

If you are using Pointless, the problem is not a bug; it's a feature ;-)
When you open the Pointless Control Panel and click on a font name, you'll
notice that pathname information (where the font is stored) is displayed. So,
you could always open the Pointless Control Open, click on a font, click the
Remove button, and then click the Add button in order to let Pointless know
where on your other system the fonts are located.

016- When I run Platinum Paint I get error $1301. What's
wrong?
Yes, I got the same error message when I tried to run Platinum Paint with
Bernie ][ The Rescue on a G3 Power Mac. The error code refers to a missing
driver, meaning, I assume, a printer driver. But even if the correct printer
driver is present, what Platinum Paint really wants is for the D C Printer
settings to be correct.
1) Be sure you have an appropriate printer driver in
*/System/Drivers.
2) Go to the Control Panel. Open D C Printer. Be sure the
appropriate port or slot is checked, as well as the
appropriate printer driver.
