I can (and do) read PDFs on my Palm m500, an old Red Hat 6.2 box, an old OS/2 box, and boxen much newer and "fancier". Now I'm not sure what all is in this missive that realy *needs* to be in a PDF. But bitching about it being in some "propietary" format like it's some Microsoft format is just silly. There are official Adobe Acrobat viewer programs for old and oddball systems (OS/2 and PalmOS), never mind "current" systems. For everything else there are open source options like xpdf or ghostscript/ghostview. I can view a PDF on my "old" Amiga 2000 if I like. -- 0--------------------------------------------------------------------0 | http://www.unrealtournament2003.com | Have You Played Atari Today? | 0--------------------------------------------------------------------0
