My plotter emulator (7470.EXE) will actually render the file, but not at a high-enough resolution to read the text. Plus, it was stored in portrait mode for some reason, which is a problem for both 7470.EXE and the other HP-GL viewer I have on this machine (the free GC-Prevue Gerber viewer). So if someone can rotate it and render it to a .PDF at a decent resolution, that'd be helpful... -- john, KE5FX > -----Original Message----- > From: time-nuts-bounces@febo.com [mailto:time-nuts-bounces@febo.com]On > Behalf Of Arnold Tibus > Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2007 11:13 AM > To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement > Subject: Re: [time-nuts] HP E1938 Web Page > > > On Tue, 28 Aug 2007 10:18:55 -0700, Brooke Clarke wrote: > > >Hi: > > >I'm working on a web page for the E1938 and have received a > bunch of files from > >Rick.

I used the free SwiftView viewer to render the page on screen, then PDF creator to print it to pdf. The result is readable, I have uploaded it to http://www.ko4bb.com/Test_Equipment/E1938.pdf Didier KO4BB > -----Original Message----- > From: time-nuts-bounces@febo.com > [mailto:time-nuts-bounces@febo.com] On Behalf Of John Miles > Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2007 2:58 PM > To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement > Subject: Re: [time-nuts] HP E1938 Web Page > > My plotter emulator (7470.EXE) will actually render the file, > but not at a high-enough resolution to read the text.
