[comp.text.desktop] PageMaker Util. wanted

feb@gumby.dsd.TRW.COM (Frank Bien) (02/08/91)

I am looking for a utility to pull font names used/postscript files needed
in a PageMaker 4.0/Freehand/other file before sending it off to the service
bureau for lino.  I think I have read about such a utility. . . is it free/
shareware. . . if so, is it available via ftp (I didn't see such an animal
on sumex.

Thanks for you help . . .
please email to feb@gumby.dsd.trw.com

What you're looking for is CheckList, a util that reads PageMaker files 
and then lists the included fonts, whether youhave them installed or not, 
the linked files with more details than PageMaker gives, etc.

It is shareware and available from ElseWare Corp., 713 NE Northlake Way, 
Seattle, WA  98105  206 547-9623.

They also make a database import filter for PageMaker, DataShaper, and 
a toolkit of bar code fonts, EPS producing utils & application templates.

I'll also 'fess up: I wrote the bar code package & these guys are good 
friends of mine.  But they're still great packages.
