The ultraviolet survey of planetary nebulae in the Magellanic Clouds now emcompasses 15 objects detected with IUE during 1981 - 86. Twelve of these have now been analyzed and highlights of the results are presented here. Specifically, chemical abundances and other nebular parameters have been determined, along with masses for the central stars. The latter are clustered in the range 0.58 to 0.71 solar masses, contrary to our preliminary finding. This difference is attributed to the adoption of new stellar atmosphere models that better represent the emergent flux distributions below the Lyman limit.
