Mh, Acrobat+wine on Linux I could deal with. Knowing of IE6 code on my disk might give me nightmares and psychosis. :_) But thanks for this hint. also sprach Jabka Atu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2006.08.14.1327 +0100]: > you could use ie4linux that will allow you to run ie5.5 . and this one. also sprach Micha Feigin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2006.08.14.1330 +0100]: > > - most of the options, including the highlighting are greyed out. > > I have no idea how to enable them.

Yeah, I noticed that while writing and really thought I had corrected the post accordingly. I guess what I wanted was the highlight tool, which would allow me to just select text to highlight, not select text and then apply a highlight. also sprach George Borisov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2006.08.14.1338 +0100]: > Just tried to print some text from Firefox to PS and then use ps2pdf. > > The resulting file is _not_ searchable (xpdf and evince,) and at > 28K is more than twice the size of the same text being printed > through Acrobat (12K) This is really Firefox's fault (who would have thought???) Run 'strings' on the PS it generates and you'll see that it prints images rather than text. I am not surprised, Firefox comes to us from Windows. They don't know how to deal with text over there. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system "a man who does not realise that he is half an animal is only half a man." -- thornton wilder
