When will you be making db108b7 available? I assume the change for it is in DBGRAPH.DSL? What changes the scaling like that? Modifying the Scale/max-width/max-height didn't seem to do anything. > | On a similar vein, has anyone used WordPerfect to read the RTF files? > | There are some significant difference in the look.

I found no differences with the options with regard to Word, but I wasn't looking for them either. WordPerfect, on the other hand, has some significant differences in its implementation of RTF that are not handled well by either Jade option. I don't know who's implmentation deviates most from the RTF "standard". Based on previous experience with MS-flavored "standards", I suspect them to be the culprit -- IMO. I have significant concerns about their implmentation of XML/XSL for the same reason. Has anyone else made any modifications to the Jade backend processing to support their particular application? I would consider doing so if it's feasible. ...Chuck Darney DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
