Are you referring to glitches in Compugraphic code? I've worked with Bitstream's code as well as Compugraphic's. Both are *awful*. They purport to hand out 'portable' C code… even considering C's limitations in this area, and the good parts of ANSI C, they've succeeded in creating code that I doubt will compile cleanly anywhere beyond their home system. It's sad that they ask $20K-30K to license it. And I've venture that the Compugraphic support in Pro Page accounts for 150K-200K of code, too.
