USING MACINTOSH COMPUTERS

There are no major problems with Mac OS 9 (9.2 is much more stable than earlier ones). Regarding Mac OS X, use 10.4 and higher; linking cursive does not work on versions earlier than 10.1.2. You have a choice of two different Mac installers: OS auth 9_X (OS 9 or X, requires you to enter a password), or OS 9_X (OS 9 or X), which requires your to be logged onas Adminstrator. The CD contains more information about which installer to use.

We have tested the current CD on OS 10.6.4 with Word 2008 and iWork '08.

USING WINDOWS SYSTEMS

The fonts run on every version of Windows (except Windows 3.1) up through Windows 7 and Word 2010. We no longer have an installer that runs on Windows 3.1; however, you can install the fonts on Windows 3.1 by following the instructions in the the file W_RAW_FONTS.TXT in the Windows\RawFonts folder. But the current Linkletter (4/25/09) will not run on Windows 3.1.

If any fonts do not show up in your word processor after you run the installer, restart your computer.
