This is great! I signed up just to get it. Then it took me over an hour to find it again. I'll put it up as soon as I'm done with this note. Hey, could you do a couple of us old folks a favor? Adobe still supports FreeHand (FH) which they bought from Macromedia, who had bought it from Aldus. And Adobe still *sells* PageMaker (PM). I still have the original 720k floppies for both programs. They came packaged as one of the very first publishing suites ever, the Aldus publishing suite for Windows. (God doesn't even know which photo program made up the trio.) While I don't remember the Freehand version number, PageMaker was at version 4 at the time. And true to form, Pagemaker really hasn't changed much since then (15 years ago), as far as the GUI goes, keeping the long-outdated Apple keystrokes it started out with and never bringing in more than half-a-dozen Windows keystrokes. In fact, even though I just bought the PhotoShop + Illustrator + InDesign + Flash + Dreamweaver suite (does anybody know what's new about DW in CS3?), I still like to use Freehand and this cute little powerpack from England, Xara, over all the other draw programs. What I like best about Xara is their innovation with those little windows that pop up and ask, "Are you really sure that you actually want the program to do what you just instructed it to do?" In Xara, such windows have an extra button for you to click (er, "tic"): it's the "Shut up!" button! Yes, you can tell those screens to go away if you want -- each of them and all of them (if memory serves). Take care! The Zero Card
