Hi, I recently learned that MacKichan Software is shipping pdfTeX (and a bunch of other web2c software, e.g. Omega) with their products Scientific Word and Scientific Workplace. Is there any contact between them and the pdfTex or web2c developers? It was new to me (and Hans).
since pdftex is free this is ok, but (1) they should clearly mention it somewhere in their documentation (2) there should be a clear indication of a version/release number [users need to be aware of the more general tex solution as well as the fact that they may be using an old version not adapted to the latest pdf developments] i suggest that you ask them for a copy of the software so that you can check this / advise them Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
