I agree that this is a very interesting product, and would also be interested in testing a Mac OS version. One obvious direction for exploration, I think, would be to make the native format an HTML-based kind of XML, and have HTML as an output format, with classed DIVs and SPANs taking over for non-HTML elements. Extensions to CSS are, perhaps, inevitable to some degree. Where it gets especially objectionable is when ad-hoc extensions are redundant (and incompatible) with planned ones. It sounds like some of your printing extensions are home-grown versions of the W3C working draft. What are the chances you'll be reworking your code to match the emerging standard? __________________ Todd Fahrner mailto:fahrner@pobox.com http://www.verso.com/
