Sorry, I should be shot for not including that info, I know better. Adobe Acrobat 5.0 on Win98 I guess it might be worth trying to do it with an up to date reader. When I load the doc I get the bad char boxes in front of the table of content list items. I tried printing with Netscape 6.2-- latest, and just got the first page out. I am sure it is something in the style sheet, but what? :) > >>This doc could make my life so much better with my boss, it is perfect >>beautiful, but if I tell him you can only view it on the screen he will be >>suspect about the source of the information. > >Yes, I love it too :) But.. hmm you could point your boss to the perl.com >version http://perl.com/pub/a/2001/10/17/etoys.html and use the "Print this >page" feature there. > He loves pretty picutures so I am trying to get those as well. Something must be going on with perl.com at the moment, the site seems really slow, and I just got a 500 on the print this link. Maybe a database timeout? Anyway, I guess I will take a break and come back later. >>I am going to see if there is a way I can clean up the PDF, and the Netscape >>printing problem is really weird.
