Hi: Just received a sample copy of The LaserLetter in the mail today. It's suppose to be a monthly aimed at the "PostScript Imagesetting Community". (Gee, i didn't know we constituted a "community" already — can't wait 'til we're a town). Not badly done, but all the information on gray fountains was in the PostScript Language Journal months ago (and what ever happened to that mag — I haven't received an issue in eons). There is also a rather exhaustive article on bounding boxes, which kind of walks you through high school geometry again, for those who missed it. Can't see swinging the $144 they're asking for it annually. Anyone hear of Peter Fink Communications in Newton, MA? That's the publisher. Besides Seybold, MacWeek and, now, Kathleen Tinkel's MacPrePress, what else is outthere that's worth reading regularly for interesting news (and it sure isn't Linotype's newletter, LinoTalk, which is about the worse written and layed-out newsletter I've ever seen — definitely a candidate for a redo by the folks at Newsletter Factory). –jon
