And since OpenOffice is not one of Sun's packages, asking them
how to make it work does not make sense either. Sun's version is
StarOffice, which does work in general -- just not with the images in
those .rtf files. :-)


If you feel like doing some more fooling around...

Abiword is supposed to run on Solaris. Windows version 2.6.2
opened that rtf document, the images seemed to look okay
too. It was a bit pokey doing it, but my computer is old and
slow anyway. See:

I don't know diddly squat about compiling/running stuff for
any of the nixs', on your own there


O.K. I'll have a look at it.

But really -- since I have the PDF and could print it, I'm not
sure that I really need to go through this. :-)

Thanks,
DoN.
