Found that Choices.PDF on Iyonix was empty, but on the other two 
machines it and a small file of Printing choices.  Copied this into 
the Iyonix choices file -- still "Flex memory error".

If I load a copy of !PDF from one of the other machines via network to 
the Iyonix iconbar, and then doubleclick a PDF file, the app still 
dies with "Flex memory error".
   Methinks it must be something on the Iyonix, not !PDF itself, that 
is causing the hiccup.
   Wot in the world IS flex memory?  Never heered of it before.

Where to find that, please?
   The HTML manual inside !PDF 3.02.1.24 has a link to  
www.riscos.info/packages/DocumentDetails.html but the version there is 
the same as what I have.
   Searching with Google turns up www.pdf.iconbar.com but that's 
version 3.00.1.19 dated 2007.
