you use "LQP FontDisk"
or
if
you replace "no" with "yes" in
your currently installed parameter fIle as

answer to the question "Fonts
on
the text disk'!" (see Section

"The Structure
of
the Parameter File") the system searches the fonts
on
the
document disk.
It
can
be
helpful to have several work disks. each equipped with it's own LQ
fonts for a special purpose (letters
or
greeting cards
and
so
on). You can also
copy a complete disk
and
then modify
it
to suit you current needs. Work is
also made much easier

you own an REU.
