Hi, Jim. With respect to Postscript, pardon my using a small item from a recent IETF meeting, at which there was similar discussion about using it as an exchange standard, but I have a small question: What is postscript? People keep talking about it and they even keep exchanging files that are supposedly of that type, but I am impressed with the frequency with which such files do not print. (Yes, I am also impressed with the number of times they DO print, but the failures seem infinitely more interesting to me.) I.e., there ain't no such thing as standard postscript. You can point to any document you want, but it appears not to reflect reality. Dave
