WordPerfect 8

[JerryC at world.std.com (Jerry A Clabaugh)]

I downloaded it yesterday.  It has plenty of functionality, it was a snap
to install, and I printed some good-looking test pages with it.  It
_works_ pretty well, but it doesn't _look_ as good as Word, entirely
because of the screen fonts (the printed fonts are fine).  What is the
story with fonts in X?  Netscape looks OK, and hardly anything else does,
and Netscape  seems to have its own fonts which nothing else can use.  I'm
not about to go back to MS Windows, but I find it hard to sell free Unix
to friends and family when most of the apps have clunky-looking screen
fonts.
