I tried diffing the brochure but the diff file was almost double in size - perhaps due to minor formatting differencies. This is the one situation I was afraid of - both manual scanning for differencies and reconversion are quite tedious. It would have been better to do the changes to the HTML sources - then we could have used Mosaic or Lynx to produce the raw text version. Well, no use crying over spilled milk, but we really ought to utilize our limited resources more sensibly. Once more I suggest that at least those documents which we may want to put on-line ought to be maintained in HTML (or some other easily convertible format). I'd think that making changes to a HTML version might actually require less work as one wouldn't have to mind minor formatting details - the Web client programs would take care of those. I'll see about the changes when I've got a few hours to spare. Veijo
