Jackie, This incident predated widespread use of PDFs. I think Acrobat was at version 1 or 2 at the time and no one I knew could figure out what the heck the application (and its various, vaguely named components) were all about. We spent a fortune on color separated film and Matchprints for much of our other work. ...which brings back a funny story. One of the houses we used for color separations from our QuarkXPress files had all the right things going for it: they were cheap, fast, and good (forget the adage that says "choose two"); they were courteous; they were in the neighborhood. Our clients particularly appreciated their ability to get skin tones right. But they had good experience -- 90% of their work was for the soft porn magazine industry! Neil
