CorelDRAW! Font Selection in High Resolution with Windows 3.0

Last reviewed: November 23, 1994
Article ID: Q69383

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.0, 3.0a

SYMPTOMS

When used under Windows 3.0 on a high-resolution display (800 x 600 and up), or with a font-scaling technology such as Adobe Type Manager or FaceLift, CorelDRAW! version 2.0 may choose fonts for some functions that are difficult to read.

In particular, CorelDRAW! may choose awkward fonts for its ruler numbers and for thumbnail titles in its Mosaic utility program.

CAUSE

This problem is due to interaction between CorelDRAWS!'s font requests and the activity of the Windows 3.0 font mapping engine.

Corel Corporation is aware of the problem and plans to correct it in a future revision.
