TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

To be exact, Frame reformats to the printer driver--or at least displays
the message. The message displays:
--even if you change from a PCL to a postscript driver for the same
printer.
--even if you are not using printer-resident fonts.
In the same way, Frame announces that font information has changed every
time you add, delete, or (in version 4.0) set fonts as active or
inactive in the Adobe Type Manager--regardless of whether the document
you're opening is affected by the changes.
If the program is going to be so sensitive, I wish its messages were a
little more specific!
"All saints revile her, and all sober men
Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean--
In scorn of which we sailed to find her."
In distant regions likeliest to hold her
Whom we desired above all things to know,
Sister of the mirage and echo."
==Robert Graves
