I am not sure why you think that the text is represented as an image (it is not). For on-line reading, including searching, I use the info format. Searchable alternatives are the plain text file, and the unsplit HTML version. They are available at http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/gf062txt.zip http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/Docs-html/gforth.html.gz If you insist on PDF, I just did #make a version with Type1 fonts, old xpdfs don't display Type3 dvips -t letterSize -Z doc/gforth.dvi -Pcmz -o doc/gforth.ps ps2pdf doc/gforth.ps doc/gforth.pdf and xpdf seems to search it quite fine. I have put the result on http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/gforth-0.6.2.pdf > Is there some source file for this doc which I could make into a > searchable pdf document? The source files are doc/gforth.ds and many others. The best starting point for conversion to all other formats is doc/gforth.texi. - anton --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
