PDF stands for "portable document format." What it boils down to is that it is a way for a publisher to make a document that looks the same everywhere. (This is a sighted kind of thing.) It doesn't matter what kind of system or printer you are using. The appearance of a document is the same up to the resoolution of the device. It has become very popular for for electronic rendition of forms. This way though the print quality itself may vary, the layout will not. The form will be the same number of pages regardless of the end user. This is not optimim for blind and low vision people. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net Nowlan's Theory: He who hesitates is not only lost, but several miles from the next freeway exit.
