That's just one particular facet of portability. If the European designer decides that the document should reformat itself intelligently according to the media dimensions, then he should be able to say so. If he wants the document to be paginated and laid out in exactly the same way, regardless of the media dimensions, then he should be able to say so. In the latter case, he has to take responsibility for ensuring that the layout is compatible with a variety of media dimensions, but it should still be his choice. >I should also be able to look at it on screen without having to scroll >back and forth, like I do with Acrobat. I don't follow you. What does that have to do with formatting? -Steve Schafer XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
