Acrobat files are great in terms of detail; their problem is that they are
very big as a rule and take a long time to load or open. I tried in vain to
compress one the other day to send it to my yahoogroup-- yahoo kept
rejecting my post as it was just a bit over 1 meg, and they have strict size
rules.
