Do you have the same problems if you convert the >PS file to .pdf and then open it in Acrobat? At first, I was using the Postscript feature and running through Ghostview to create a PDF file. That worked well for 2 of the files, but the 3rd file it seemed that an error cropped up toward the end of the file so that page 2 was ignored. The problem persisted whether I used a Postscript printer or Ghostview. So, I tried to do it with HP, but apparently it won't print any columns past column 1 in formats 4 and 5. Interestingly enough, there doesn't seem to be much of a problem when printing the original horizontally formatted document. It is the Columnmaker 1.0 vertically formatted document which is having problems print. Also, the larger print seems to work fine, but formats 4 and 5 do not. > In other words, I'm trying to figure out if it's a problem with >the Postscript conversion, or the printing. > > Can you post the document in .sgn, .ps and .pdf formats?

I will send the same file to you and maybe you can find something out. Stuart Thiessen 4616 Hickman Des Moines, IA 50310 |
