Lisa, When you say, "…limited output for the Amiga…" What type of output do you require? What do you mean by "You can't own one,…" If you mean imagesetter, yes I do own one, might I interest you in its purchase? 🙂 If not, I would be happy to output a couple test pages for you, just send me a disk file, either Postscript (be sure to set up the print parameters correctly) or in PPage, Pagestream or PDraw format. Print parameters for Imagesetter: Roll Paper 11.7 inches wide Centering page is helpful For crop marks make output page size (not page layout size) large enough to include the dimensions of the crop marks, plus page should be oriented to allow length of page to run with the length of the roll not its width. If you don't do this with crop marks there won't be enough space to print them. As for the logon problems, it sounds like maybe a problem with the phone line. I had a similar problem, right down to paying for the long-distance call. Finally I couldn't log on at all, called the P-company and complained, the service guy called and said the problem was fixed. I asked what it was he said a bird nest in a junction box four miles from my house had gotten wet and became conductive just enough to cause enough conductivity to make the cross-connections. If your problem continues I'd call Repair and ask them to check their lines. Love the Biscotti, still have the recipe you sent me, guess I'll have to try and bake them myself. Of course I'll be happy to receive a package of your world-famous Lisa van Sand Biscotti! <grin>
