Not impossible but not worth the hassel is all.

That can be tricky.  Probably easier to get the originals, if possible, and
make your own html.

 WC> but I'm not likely to go to the bother of google.

Understood.  You'll only end up with the text anyhow.

Probably.

I've never had the pleasure of Adobe.  I prefer stuff like tetex if I even
bother at all anymore.  Used to have to do that ages ago in a land far
away.  Some of my work ended up being displayed at conventions (Convention
Centre in New Orleans for sure as I was there to make sure) way back when
and got some compliments from a few in the know about such things.  For all
I know today much of it might still be in use.  Also used to write manpages
for specialized software and got many compliments about that.  No graphics
in manpages though so I don't think that counts.

 WC> I'll be fine in a day or three.

Take your time.  No pressure from me.

I definetly support the cause.  Sorry, but I am not much for praying.

Life is good,
Maurice
