I guess the time has now passed for the demand for such specialist software for the RISC OS market.cheap option I can recommend Quite Imposing and Quite Imposing Plus fromwww.quite.com - it works as a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat and offers aPoints up some dilemmas for me - in other words one hundredth of the time spent on OP writing a plug in for something else might have produced a more viable product.With reference to the other two replies that you have already received. These are yet more examples of RISC OS peopel living in Cloud CuckooIf you refer to my comment it was a statement of what I would be prepared to pay for in an upgraded version (or what my priority would be) It might only be a £30 upgrade but depending on how many others took up the upgrade it might return the cost of doing it.By you comment you only think 10 people would take the upgrade. I'm sure that there are far more than that with OP and would pay for an upgrade. If you are so convinced that the RISC OS market is so dead why do you hang around sniping all the time. Leave us in peace in Cloud Cuckoo Land - or are you just another looney too!?!?
I believe that I am! :o(I had no figure in mind about how many people would pay for an upgrade, but it would appear from David Pilling's original comment that he is thinking that writing non-RISC OS-originated software would be more viable for him.
Given your figures, you are perhaps thinking that an upgrade to OPro is only going to take several days of effort on the part of David. With the best will in the world, I don't think so.
