Apple System 7 Pro - Manual (Page 11)

System 7 file sharing is designed to let an individual user share files with
B small number of users. Its performance as a server is slower than that of a
dedicated AppleShare file server, and only 10 users can connect at one time,
as compared to 50 or more on an AppleShare server. The performance of a
user's computer is also degraded when others are accessing shared folders and
disks.
AppleShare servers also offer more extensive administration and security
features and are designed for centralized file service.
Does file sharing let multiple users share one document simultaneously?
File sharing does allow multiple users to access a document simultaneously,
but whether they can share the document is controlled by the application that
opens the document. If the application supports multiple users reading and/or
writing at once, users can share the document.
Note: Before you share programs, remember that copyright laws may prevent
those programs from being shared. Check the applicable licensing agreements
and follow their terms.
How can users distinguish between AppleShare file servers and file-sharing
Macintosh or PowerBook computers in the Chooser?
One simple solution is to use a special naming convention for the AppleShare
servers to make them easy to find in the list (for example, put a prominent
special character, such as a bullet, before each server name).
If you are on an EtherTalk or TokenTalk internet with AppleTalk zones, you
can create a zone in which to register only AppleShare servers.
If the list in the Chooser is very long, you may also want to distribute the
file-sharing users among several zones.
Fonts in System 7
Are any kinds of fonts other than TrueType compatible with System 7?
All fonts that were previously compatible with Macintosh system software are
compatible with System 7.
What happens if a previously installed font has the same name as a TrueType
font?
The bitmap font will be used whenever it's called for in a size that you have
installed, and the TrueType font will be used for all other sizes.
TrueType font names are easily differentiated because there is no font size
in their name (one TrueType font file is used for all sizes). For example,
your system may contain the bitmap fonts Geneva 10 and Geneva 12, but the
TrueType font would simply be called Geneva.
Can I mix TrueType fonts with others in the same document?
Yes.
Do TrueType fonts have exactly the same dimensions as bitmap fonts?
