THANKS! >-- Andrew (burago@mth.msu.edu) Funny coincidence: I just this very evening opened a missive from "Micropress Inc." (68-30 Harrow Street, Forest Hills, NY, 11375, USA) pushing this very pgm. Looks like it does a lot of fancy font stuff, but it seems to be PC-only. Their voice phone nr is 718-575-1816, fax is 718-575-8038. -- Chris Moller (moller@netmail.austin.ibm.com) IBM pays absolutely no attention to my opinions, ergo the foregoing cannot possibly represent its position.
