Is anybody here using a software RIP with FM and Win2K? I've just bought an Epson 1280 inkjet, and I'm getting the true-blue Adobe PS RIP software for it. I have a couple of pre-install jitter questions, if anybody knows: 1. when I have the RIP installed and I select that as the output device and am using FM, will FM know that all of my PS fonts are available to it? 2. is there any way to let FM print the PS file to the current directory, but then have some automated right-click context menu send the PS to the RIP's watched directory? Or perhaps something smart enough to know that when I'm selecting the Epson as the target device, that the PS should be automagically sent to the RIP and printed. It couldn't be just that all PS is sent to the RIP, because of course I make PS files for distlling, too, it would have to be a smart enough "agent" that it could distinguish when I have the Epson as the default printer and when I have Distiller as the default printer. Would be nice if it would delete the PS files when the print's finished, too ... So far I've been very impressed with the Epson's print, quality, speed, and also with the immediately dry ink. Particularly in comparison to the HP990cxi that I had a month and have now given away in disgust. Sheila
