Is it possible to use the Pantone 'Color Web facility in Pagestrem.
I know that I can transfer the R G B figures, but that is rather clumsy
and time consuming.
I believe (though I may be wrong) that it should be possible to click
the colours (English spelling) from one to the other.

Can this be added to PGS or is it already possible in some way?

Hello,
Just wanted to report that I was finally able to change computers
with my wife and as a consequence, change from Win98SE to WinXP. So far
all three versions of PageStream, 4.1.5.8, 4.1.6.30 Pro and 5.0.1.30 Pro
have loaded a particular odd sized document and printed it just fine.
I would add, the only problem I found was the toolbar buttons on the
4.1.6.30 Pro version were unreadable. I have not had time to check the
website to see if there are any updates for a while, so please excuse me
if the problem is taken care of.
Now the only problem I need to take care of is migrating some of the
TTF fonts I like to this computer. I was very happy to note that
printing worked the same on all three versions. I am printing on an old
Epson Stylus Color 860 printer. I tried printing to my wife's HP Deskjet
940C printer and was amazed to find it will not print correctly on half
letter size paper (5.5"w x 8.5" h.) So far my inquiry to HP has been
rebuffed. Anyone have a solution? It really isn't a "have to have," but
I would like to know the reason behind the problem.

You could always print out:

http://www.itnews.org.uk/w_qrefs/w_pantone/p_pantone1.cfm

as a reference and construct a PageStream colors file with the numbers
as names. If you have a lot of free time, that is. (:^)>

At 79 years old, I have plenty of 'free' time, I hope.
Whether I have enough patience and ink is another matter.

Perhaps I'll convert to pdf though.

Thanks for the info.

Kind regards,

Frank
