Better say "more simple" B-) Time ago I asked this list about the Lout backend for Jade in order to generate Postscript/PDF in a more simpler way than using TeX. May be now is the time of think seriously with this possibility. We are using Lout with a Jade DSSSL to obtain Postscript and PDF as a workaround while no backend exists. BTW, the only drawback that i found in Lout last version (3.17 ?) is the lack of support in the including of Images( GIF, TIFF, JPG,..) inside a PDF output. I think a Lout and Jade "integration" will be nice. Thanks Josep Vela - R&D Manager - FIHOCA; Avda.
