	To recap, in the Read Me file for TrueType, a error in
MacWrite II was mentioned in which TrueType fonts over 127 pts would
not display properly.  And additional error in the Reduced View was
also discovered, and mentioned on the net by myself and Laurence.

	Today, I got through to Claris Technical Support and spoke to
a tech about the problem, as recommended by the Read Me file.

	The response:

	"Claris is aware of the problem, and we are looking into
solutions.  I can't really say much than that."

	Granted, this reeks of "there's things in the works that I
can't talk about," but that's their perogative.  The thing that
bothers me is that I had to call Claris Tech Support to find this out.
This is something that could have -easily- been put in the TrueType
Read Me file - especially now that Claris is part of Apple again.

	<sigh>
