For those who use the context figure base mechanism, it is quite nice to have a 2 Meg downsamples fig base instead of a 50 meg one when testing files -) Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- fall-back web server: www.pragma-pod.nl -------------------------------------------------------------------------
