Hi Mark,
So does Apple's text engine use QuickDraw GX or is that only
for text in the graphics environment.
I was at Apples Developer site and found a good link that
describes text justification with QuickDraw GX.
http://developer.apple.com/textfonts/Tools/tooldir/TrueEdit/
Documentation/TE/TE4position.html
I figure Revolution will finally upgrade to the Apples current text
engine
so I want to learn everything I can about it now.
thanks,
