I normally write my manuscripts in Latex and likewise I have no problem producing pdfs from Kile. This problem has arisen because I wanted to make pdfs of web pages. I've just submitted a research proposal and I needed to include a few webpages in lieu of proper quotes for some of the equipment I wanted. The online submission process required all documents to be uploaded in pdf format. This is just an issue of something that is supposed to work and doesn't and I'd like to figure out why and fix it. At the moment though it isn't "mission critical" Matt -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Dr. Matthew R. Lee CASEB & ECIM Departamento de Ecologia, P.
