Subject: [9fans] Inferno /sys/doc: PDFs are actually PS?
Date: Thu, 17 Jan 2008 21:18:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <282E2241-61C6-43B4-B851-72BBDE1547F0@mac.com> (raw)

Hello. I tried to see the Inferno document "An Overview of Limbo/ 
Tk" (inferno_root/doc/limbotk/tk.pdf) with page, and it looks blurry.  
So I decided to put it on my Mac OS X, and Adobe Reader didn't open  
it. I then found it was a ps file, not a PDF file. Why does Inferno  
use the .pdf extension, then?

PS - I converted the PS to a PDF with Mac OS X and it it still  
blurry :-( The Inferno distribution doesn't come with any images so I  
can't rebuild from the troff source.
