Er, yes -- thanks. When I wrote "print", I was including the possibility
of printing to a PostScript file and keeping that, which is what I always
do (I only ever do this kind of transaction using FireFox under Linux); on
RISC OS, you could equally well use my own PrintPDF with GhostScript, as
Martin has already suggested.
Could we follow this up somewhere else, please -- it's off topic for this
list.
