I understand but in my case I choose another method. If I can't create PDF X/1-a I can't do production work. The lack is a deal-breaker. Thus far 1.5.0 has been a usable product for me. In fact instead of updating it nightly I may go to a weekly update, and save the current working version so that if by chance the newest version is not usable I will have a fall-back. I compiled my first program late in life, in 1968. So compilation does not terrify me. I use a script.... -- John Culleton Wexford Press "Create Book Covers with Scribus" Printable E-book 38 pages $5.95 http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html I have done my share of compiles and link edits in my day but none recently. Hell, I can't even find the location of 1.5svn. I can't ask John how to do it because he works in a Unix environment. Can someone direct me to 1.5svn and instructions for compiling it in Windows?
