192.0. "New DMCC brochure in IR literature (LI01GF)" by BBPBV1::WALLACE (john wallace @ bbp. +44 860 675093) Mon Mar 24 1997 21:35

    There's a nice new DMCC glossy appeared (order no. EC-F7401-56?).
    It's also in the Integrated Repository as LI01GF.
    
    But in the IR it seems to be monochrome. I want my burgundy logos and
    borders :-) 
    
    Acrobat sees the PDF as mono. RoPs (a fast but limited PS previewer)
    shows the PS as mono on pages 1 and 2. Page 3 causes RoPs to fail:
    error: undefined, offending command: Type1BuildChar. GhostView also
    reports a PostScript error which I don't have handy. 
    
    I don't have a colour PS printer to try... I'm running out of ideas (I
    ordered some hardcopies from VTX LOS but they take a while)
    
    Problem my end or somewhere else ?
    
    regards

192.1Nogo on LPS20 (but my hardcopies arrived :-)BBPBV1::WALLACEjohn wallace @ bbp. +44 860 675093Tue Mar 25 1997 11:346
    Doesn't print on either of the LPS20s here too, another PS error on
    page 3 (and both had identical paper jams in attempting pages 1 and 2,
    though I'm assuming that was just my bad luck).

192.2File views and prints fine .pdfSHRCTR::WADAMSFri Apr 11 1997 22:5513
    John,
    
    Sorry to say the problem is on your end.  I have viewed and printed the
    .PDF file. My setup is Netscape V3.0, Adobe Acrobat V2.1, and printed
    to a PrintServer 17.  My PC is setup with WNT 4.0 and 32MB of memory.
    
    Could be memory related.  The graphic on page 3 is sizable.
    
    Still looking into color (colour) vs b&w. Not sure if it is a
    limitation of Acrobat instead of the file itself.

192.3Postscript version OK to print, shareware :>(SHRCTR::WADAMSFri Apr 11 1997 23:0614
    John,
    
    Also printed the .ps datasheet.  copied to a VMS account and submitted
    to Printserver 17.
    
    I did try to view with the ROPS post script view...page 1 fine, page 2
    was a partial display, page 3 caused an app error.  Would  hold the
    shareware accountable, since the file printed fine above.
    
    Looked thru a number of other .PDF files...(for OEM)...they are all
    b&w. I gues we should put on a pair of rose colored glasses to see
    Digital branding!

192.4No color for .pdfSHRCTR::WADAMSFri Apr 11 1997 23:204
    After looking thru many .PDF files on Digital's external web page...b&w
    is in....color is out.
