Character spacing and Postscript
- Subject: Character spacing and Postscript

Hello,
I am creating a report using proprtional fonts such as Helevetica-Light.
When I view my report the characters are nicely spaced out and if I
print to the windows printer the output is the same as in the viewer.
If I print to PCL then again the output is fine.
When I print to Postscript thought the characters are much less evenly
spaced. Is this anything to do with SQR? or is it a printer issue?
A few extra quick questions if anyone knows the answers to these:
1) When SQR produces a Postscript file it adds its own procedures. What
version of Postscript is this, is it possible to alter the postscript
and does Sqribe support Postscript well (i.e. will it support the new
version of Postscript).
2) Has SQR any facility to alter the space between characters. I think
in typographical language this is referred to as 'tracking'. Say I want
to double space characters in parts of a report, can this be done?
Thanks for your time,
Gary
