Hmm. Yes, that's very interesting. I saved a copy, although Adobe apparently thinks that was illegal of me: No part of this publication (whether in hardcopy or electronic form) may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form, or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior written permission of Adobe Systems Incorporated. Please note that the content in this guide is protected under copyright law even if it is not distributed with software that includes an end user license agreement. That's cute wording, isn't it? Doesn't that pretty much debar saving the file on my hard drive? Surely that's a retrieval system? Which says they're trying to deny certain fair use rights, as I read it. In any case, this may be one reason it's so hard to find, since no one is legally allowed to mirror it. I accessed this without registering because you provided a deep-link, but normally, Adobe makes you go through a forms process to get this far, AFAICT. That's probably why Google can't find it, too. So, yeah, it's there. And that's better than I thought. But it still doesn't quite give me warm-fuzzies. ;-) Cheers, Terry -- Terry Hancock ( hancock at anansispaceworks.com ) Anansi Spaceworks http://www.anansispaceworks.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Why eps as opposed to pdf or whatever? Well, for one reason, postscript is an older and more widespread standard in the printing field (whereas PDF is ostensibly only for electronic distribution). Any printshop running whatever OS on their computers will have an easier time reading and handling encapsulated postscript. That would be the printshop's reason. Furthermore, PDF isn't really an open data format, just a closed one that turned out to be easier to crack than .doc files. Adobe isn't any nicer about sharing their standards than Microsoft is. The fact that we have good Linux readers for PDF has more to do with slow releases of new versions of the standard, and more widespread use (especially in the academic community), than with any intrinsic quality. But the latest versions (5.x?) still don't seem to be accessible with open source tools. OTOH, postscript has been around for so long that it is definitely a well-understood standard (there are published manuals explaining the language in detail). I'm not sure whether it was intended to be open or not, but it is in effect, at least.
