Is the file corrupted, or is it a problem on my end? I also had this problem. I then downloaded the PostScript version and tried to convert that. My conversions failed on three instances of a mis-typed font ('Helvetica-bold' instead of 'Helvetica-Bold') and [IIRC] one other fairly recognizable typo, which I fixed. I could then pass it through Acrobat Distiller, but come out without the images (and this is all sloowww on my machine due to the file's size). I could probably come up with a patch file, but I suppose the better course is to find where the problems are in the original SGML, which I didn't do. - John Mills To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
