Find attached an FTS1200 efc vs FRS-C plot. Btw... GSview is an excellent
viewer for PS, EPS and some PDF.

Hello Said,

Yes, no problem. Please direct me to the URL for the schematic in hpgl
format. I can't seem to locate it.

However, I did find the E1938 assembly drawing and have posted an
appropriate pdf here:
http://www.realhamradio.com/E1938_asdrawb.pdf

I will be happy to post a high resolution schematic when I locate the hpgl
source. The schematic may be more comfortable to view by simply plotting
directly to a D-size plotter, but the pdf will work OK if you don't mind the
limitations of your screen size.

Thanks,

Bill, K8CU

I don't completely agree.

JPG is not good for line drawings like schematics. A lossless
compression like GIF or PNG is much better. HTML by itself doesn't
support images (needs imbedded jpg, gif, png, etc.) and has limited text
formatting. I hate it when the only availble document format is
html-based.

PDF is ok, but hard to modify without spending money (like to split a
schematic between multiple 8.5 x 11 pages for printing.)

Where's the problem??? PDF as such is really not DPI limited, raster formats in
it is however... but a good HPGL to PS to PDF conversion would still only be
vectors...

Said, you have your timing screwed up here. PNG is definitly much newer than
JPG. PNG is certainly standard and viewers are plentiful (web-browsers
anyone?). Hell, even GIF87 still works!!! HTML is also older than PNG. I've
seen PNG progress from the GIF2000 proposal after I have been teaching HTML and
JPG to the students.

Doing such incorrect timing errors on a time-list? Can't avoid pointing them
out.

HPGL is an old format, that is true. Still makes alot of wheels turn, but maybe
not as generic exchange format these days.

PS is still a very valid format, but it is not as neat as PDF and thankfully
PDF is now more widely spread, but it has been a major headache before.

Oh, and HTML is old as hell now, you should sing the prais of XHTML and XML
these days. It is only old farts like myself that still hack HTML by hand.
My webpages layout makes stone-age feel recent and as a fresh wind.

PS. I envy you guys for having the E1938A to fool around with!!!

Cheers,

Then you obviously do not know PDF-XChange viewer (you are forgiven, I did
not know until last week's review in PCWorld).
PDF-XChange Viewer lets you edit/markup pdfs and it is free and fast, highly
recommended.

I do not know if it can be used to split/merge, but for free, the markup
capability is great.

Yes, but you have decorations like background picture and animated images.
I skipped those and the only advanced feature I've tried is some MathML for
the hyperfine splitting page.

All creators of overloaded turbo-graphic on their pages should be sentenced to
a month of 300 baud modem only access.
