In the words of mentholiptus thefriendlyghost: >> Use InDesign instead of Xpress it's miles better trust me > I second that! You're both absolutely right, but there's also the legacy issue... :-) Just as with OS9 / OSX I expect to run BOTH Xpress and InDesign for quite some time. And besides... Once I finally dump Xpress for good there's bound to be a REALLY good, cool-running graphics card out there. As well as a nice processor kit. I hope. *fingers crossed* Magnus Stockholm
