Why is it whenever I try to view this art It's out of line? Nothing seems to line up. The only time I've been able to see it in it's proper form is when I view it in html format with a Web browser. Can anyone tell me what the #@$$ I'm doing wrong. Thanks for any help, Paul *********************************** Paul Montgomery / pau...@winternet.com URL: http://www.winternet.com/~paulm/ FTP:ftp.winternet.com/users/paulm/ ***********************************
