Philip, Here's something to look at in PDraw 3.0. I have found that I have to adjust the X position in the Postscript Output Specs of ALTER page for proper output position with my laser printer. I set X pos. to -1.5 picas, Y pos to 1.0 picas, press [return] and X pos. increments to -1.4. Click on OK and then again on the OK or the alter current page requester. IF I go back and check those Postscript Output Specs, I find that the X position has been incremented down again by .1 of a pica. So now it's at -1.3, if I repeat this over and over, it continues to increment down, and then at -1.1 after two recalls of the requester it changes to -0.11 and then to 0.11! I've never noticed this before, but is it possible that this is why the postscript output is always off? I've always had to adjust the offset, and it always seems to alter itself a tiny bit. Please check this out and bring it to the attention of the development team. Thanks Chris
