+1 TeX is widely used and well documented -- why have something almost the same? though I still think the real solution is to sue TeX itself to do the typesetting. not the way we do now, but: Parsing the DVI and laying out stuff that way -- so it's scalable, and has fewer dependencies. Including the fonts required (STIX again -- maybe it will really happen eventually) Occasionally someone pops up with plan to make an embeddable TeX engine, which is what we really want--maybe some day. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
