Pete I received my PDraw 3 (direct from G-D) at the end of last week (I registered with them directly in my Transactor days) But, as you say, it seems like none of the dealers here yet have it. I wonder if G-D is trying to fulfill back orders on upgrades first. My first impression of PDraw 3 is that it's pretty good but I still _HATE_ the way that _it_ decides where it's going to put things that I'd rather keep separated <sigh> … but I guess that's an argument I don't think I'll ever win since it's clear that the programmers have very fixed ideas on how I should run my system. PDraw has Genies like PPage3, although there are some minor differences in the way they're handled, and the documentation on the supplied Genies is rather poor (although some of the Genies are fascinating!). The ability to use CGfonts directly is a godsend (there's no need to duplicate all your fonts just for the sake of using PDraw) … and there's a lot of other neat stuff in there too. Well worth getting. Mike (from the UK)
