So many ISO WG seem to use MS Word for document interchange. The definition, I believe, is 'what some verson of MS Word produces on some platform'. Yet ISO does have a standard or two about portable documents ... As long as the proposed definition of an ISO HTML does not settle on 'what some version of HTML Assistant for Word emits on some platform' things will work out OK in the end, I suppose. -- Chris Lilley, W3C [ http://www.w3.org/ ] Graphics and Fonts Guy The World Wide Web Consortium http://www.w3.org/people/chris/ INRIA, Projet W3C chris@w3.org 2004 Rt des Lucioles / BP 93 +33 93 65 79 87 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France
