I was out of the office for a week, and am just now getting through the backlog on my desk! The header you show was not part of the file I got. Perhaps it got lost in the transmission; did you use a compression software? Please send a new uncompressed file to cppost@aw.com (current password = Highway61) and let me know by email when it's there. If this doesn't work we may want to try exchanging a text file. Thanks for your patience. I'm sure we can get this to work if we just stick with it. --Marty -------------------------------------- Date: 1/31/96 9:09 AM To: Marty Rabinowitz From: Christopher Provenzano > Subject: Time: 9:13 AM > OFFICE MEMO PostScript file?

Here is the header of the file I sent (just to make sure it's the same one. It is a PS file with duplex set so if the printer can't print two sided pages that might mess it up. Otherwise I've had no problem printing it out on a HP LaserJet 4si. %!PS-Adobe-2.0 %%Creator: dvips 5.526 Copyright 1986, 1994 Radical Eye Software %%Title: threads.dvi %%CreationDate: Tue Jan 16 23:07:51 1996 %%Pages: 316 %%PageOrder: Ascend %%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792 I'll be out till late tomorrow afternoon at which point I'll try and contact you.
