Hi, I've been making good progress with the Neatpad tutorials, and have posted another two parts: Part 12 - "Uniscribe Mysteries" Part 13 - "More Uniscribe Mysteries" These two parts continue with the Uniscribe theme. Note that there is still no update to the Neatpad code - for this you will have to wait for Part 14 (coming soon hopefully!). This whole Uniscribe business is pretty complicated and difficult to write about, however I've done my best to detail all the issues I encountered when I started looking at this API...anyhow do let me know if there's any aspect you'd like me to expand upon and I'll see what I can do.. Cheers, James www.catch22.net
