Dear Dr. Antas, The problem was not due to lack of decompressing software. It was a glitch in Windows (what, another glitch? I can't believe it!) that instead of adding the .bz2 suffix after the .pdf suffix, Windows just duplicated the pdf extension (.pdf.pdf) leaving the file unrecoverable unless manual renaming was done. Anyway, thanks for bringing another option for decompression. I'll give it a detailed look soon (as the rule goes for all your emails). Regards, Daniel

The *7zip* program is free/open source and deals with all the major formats used in Windows and Linux. It is smaller, faster and compresses better than Winzip or Winrar (I am a previous *heavy* user of Winzip and Winrar). The author is very "open source spirited" and I was even lucky to see him including some of my suggestions about missing features. A free program with clever algorithms and a supporting author, could one ask for more? If you want to know more or download it, go to: http://www.7-zip.org/ J.
