SYMPTOMS
========
 
When you use the MergePRD utility to merge fonts from the network
PostScript printer driver, PSNET.PRD, into another printer driver,
MergePRD creates the output .PRD file, but the computer hangs (stops
responding) when it tries to create the output .INI file.
 
STATUS
======
 
We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
 
WORKAROUND
==========
 
Use the POSTSCRP.PRD PostScript printer driver instead of PSNET.PRD to
merge fonts. Both printer drivers support the same fonts.
