Re: no pd files from Frame. Help!

[Ken Poshedly <poshedly -at- bellsouth -dot- net>]

Hey Keith,

The FrameMaker files I'm trying to postscript are on ouur network 
server, while each of us has our own FrameMaker installation on our platform.

So, I will probably postscript and pdf the fles from the thumd-drive 
I brought home or else have another writer do it from his terminal at 
the office.

But oneway or the other, I have got to get this FrameMaker glitch 
taken care of.

And yes, I can postscript Word files.
