Postscript makes a great archival |medium, as long as you treat the postscript file like a piece of |immutable preprinted paper. Why not mail that friend a postscript |master, and he can print it out on most of the laser printers in the |country. You are dreaming if you think most of the laser printers are PostScript. Do you know how many LaserJets and--for that matter-- LN03's and 6670's are out there? OK, I'm talking through my hat, too, but I'd be *very* surprised if I'm wrong . . . -- -- Brian, the Man from Babble-on. ...!mcnc!rti!sas!bts -- "Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking isn't thinking of" -- THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS
