LOL, indeed...lets agree to disagree...go check out Adobe..
PDF's are postscript....albeit underneath ;-) -----Original Message----- From: James Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 19 April 2005 12:37 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: macromedia and Adobe?! > They are yes BUT ONLY VISUALLY - the data in each is exactly the same.

I think you will find it is the former.... This again works for me, the CF template is on the server with the CFDUMP in it, but as soon as CF has finished processing it and hands it to the clients browser it is no longer CF, it has been converted into HTML and isn't CF any more, just like the aforementioned PostScript file has been converted into PDF format and isn't PS any more. Anyway, this isn't really a CF-Talk discussion anymore so shall we end it here?
