Hi Graham http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format <wikipedia says> The PDF combines three technologies: * A sub-set of the PostScript <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostScript> page description programming language, for generating the layout and graphics. * A font-embedding/replacement system to allow fonts to travel with the documents. * A structured storage system to bundle these elements and any associated content into a single file, with data compression <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression> where appropriate. </wikipedia said> Would be interested to hear both your arguments summarized for PDF/Postcript exposure Jason
