On Mac, this is a problem.

In order to really have the text you have to either
- run it thru an OCR program, and afterwards edit with a wordprocessor.
OR
- find a non-graphical printer driver such as for the Apple Imagewriter,
and edit the printfile.

Any recent Apple printerdriver since the Apple LaserWriter does not send
the text 'as text', but as graphics commands.

What you also can do, is use the Emailer Archive in FileMaker, transfer
the messages, and edit whatever you like. But editing incoming messages is tricky.. unless you want to create the mail where I supposedly invited
the entire list for dinner.  :-)
In that case I will reply with an 'edited' mail saying you did promise to
do the dishes..

Other solutions are products from Scansoft or Adobe which are not free.

And since Claris Emailer is text-based, we could come up with a script
that we baptise:
 "Copy/Paste the whole messages into WORD".

Hi Marc, Bea et al-
Since being on my granddaughters G4 and using her Mail program I still recall how much I loved CE and I used to copy and paste pdf files into another app. and edit them. Sometimes though I also would put them through Epson/Abbey Fine Reader and scan them into Word etc. My problem now though is that although I downloaded and put the PrintToPDF Folder in my Classic Extensions I still cannot print because I have no Print Driver for my Epson CX6600. How do I get this Driver?

regards,
doug
