14.0. "LN3 vs LNO versions of DOCUMENT documention." by CSSE32::PITCHER (Steve Pitcher/CSSE-VMS/VAXclusters) Mon Feb 23 1987 10:58

    Question on the DOCUMENT documentation:
    
    I have both LN03s and LN01s available.  We generally try to use
    the LN01s for large jobs, and save the LN03s for short quick jobs.
    
    You can probably guess which catagory the DOCUMENT documenation
    falls into.  I'll give a hint:  Its not a short quick job.

    My question is:  Do the LN3 files in the DOCUMENT documentation
    contain anything which doesn't appear in the LNO files?? All I
    can think of is sixel graphics.  Will I miss lots of good pictures
    if I print the LNO versions of these files???

14.1	You should get nearly everthing...	VAXUUM::OTTE		`Mon Feb 23 1987 15:00`	5
	I think the only info you might miss is the sixel stuff brought into the Users Guide part 1 to illustrate the <icon> tag. Everything else should be there. -Randy Otte, VAX Document writer.
14.2	Maybe its time to retire the LN01	ATLAST::BOUKNIGHT	Everything has an outline	`Mon Feb 23 1987 18:45`	8
	You will pay an additional $800+ dollars for the privilege of using the Compugraphic LN01 font set. I am not sure why you think the LN03 can't handle the big jobs. It's the same speed as the LN01, and ours print LARGE documents quite often (DOCUMENT's user guide is a good example). jack

	The paper input tray on an LN03 is inadequate for large jobs. We used an LPS40 to run off the .LN3 files. With a 5-ream input tray capacity, 40 pages per minute, and complete LN03 compatibility, it makes an ideal printer for large jobs. Marty
14.4	LPS40 performance under realistic conditions	TLE::SAVAGE	Neil, @Spit Brook	`Tue Feb 24 1987 10:19`	9
	Re: .3: For the record, I tested the speed of the LPS40 on a 590-page LN3 document. According to printer's own time stamp, the job took 33 minutes. That comes out to be slightly under 18 pages a minute. With PostScript files the LPS40 is faster. A recent test printed a 362 page .PS document in 13 minutes, slightly less than 28 pages per minute.
14.5	$$'s for fonts	TOMLIN::ROMBERG	Kathy Romberg DTN 276-8189	`Thu Feb 26 1987 16:13`	7
	Is the $855 for the LN01 fonts a one-time charge, or will we have to 'buy' the fonts again when document becomes available from SDC? Kathy
14.6	one-time charge	CLOSET::ADLER		`Thu Feb 26 1987 18:04`	6
	The $855 charge for the LN01 fonts is a one-time charge. We will not be updating those fonts when DOCUMENT becomes available from the SDC.
