You should have complained to that journal. Their effort it just a nuisance and a pain for all their users and has practically zero benefit. For any decent office, one print-out with a pdf-printer driver (available for Windows) are all that is required to create millions of copies. Alternatively, one could use one high-quality print-out and a decent scanner. Johannes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
