SignWriting List

September 7, 2001

Dear SignWriting List Members:

I am writing to introduce a new member to our List... Agnès Belzunce from France. Welcome, Agnes!

Below is a message from Agnes, who had printing problems with SignWriter 4.4, but found GhostScript and GhostView on the web, and can now print with SignWriter....I am so happy to know this message, Agnes!

Another List member, Angus Grieve-Smith, found GhostScript for us years ago...and it still works well...many List members use it.

Because I use Acrobat for so many things, I purchased Acrobat 5.0. But I am really grateful to the GhostScript developers for investing in their product, and then offering it for free on the internet. A true gift to the world....

Now, Agnes, can you tell us a little bit about your work with SignWriting in France?

Have you had any contact with the group in France that started with SignWriting in Toulouse?

Val ;-)
