If your printout is still in pica after the second test, turn to Appendix F for an explanation of how to solve the problem. Now that you know the basics of using SelecType, all you need to learn is how to combine modes and how to avoid unexpected results with SelecType. Mode Combinations In addition to the five typestyles available with SelecType, there are also many combinations of those five that you can use. Table 2-2 shows which modes can be combined.
