We are thinking about the use of SGML for document storage and transfer.
We have some questions about this ISO-standard and the available software
tools. Please give me some answers to the following questions :

1)	Are WYSISWYG-wordprocessors available which can read and write
	SGML ?

2)	Are any translators available to convert SGML to troff, TeX,
	MSWord, etc., and vice versa ?

3)	Is an SGML to PostScript converter available ?

4)	Does SGML support drawings (illustrations) ? How about tables,
	mathematical expressions ?

5)	Is it possible to use SGML and CGM in combination ? How about the
	availability of CGM-translators ?

6)	Are parsers available to check an SGML-document on syntax ?

7)	Are the software tools public domain ? What are the prices of the
	software tools ? What kind of software tools are available ?

8)	Will the newsgroup 'comp.text.sgml' be created ?

Thanks in advance !

	Anita
