TIFF and JPEG aren't standard formats?

Actually, I've been thinking about putting something together for Linux to allow 
reading the QST (QST View), QEX and NCJ CD-ROM collections. Having the images in 
TIFF/JPEG format makes that a lot more feasible.

That's correct; it was made using Microsoft's Media View product (sort of an enhanced 
Windows help file). No new ARRL products will use that.

Not a particularly informative comment. Did you have some specific gripe or were you 
just trying to be insulting?
