## 6. Unanswered questions

- Applications

  The biggest unanswered question is why `netscape communicator` can use TrueType fonts, `ghostscript` can use the same TrueType fonts, yet pages printed by `netscape` look nothing like the screen.

  The short answer is that `netscape` generates PostScript output with standard fonts (Helvetica and Times-Roman) instead of the user-specified or HTML-specified fonts. The long answer is that I have absolutely no idea why it forces this behavior, or if there is a way to override it.
