Thanks Benjamin!! :) I've been browsing many career websites (some city/county and other govt sites) and many of the job descriptions themselves are either .PDF (problem solved) or .DOC (bleh - but fixed just now with `pkg_add -r antiword`)! By the way, speaking of antiword :) Has anyone ever seen this? Apparently it's possible to make a *.RTF file that works well as a job application, and the user can tab between/among grey boxes to fill in but cannot alter any other part of the document...? Very cool, I was wondering how to make one of my own. -- Peter Leftwich President & Founder Video2Video Services Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA +1-413-403-9555 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
