Just received my latest issue of PLJ, and I must say I am impressed.
Very impressed.
The first two were good, well, a little bit better than just good,
but issue #3 is absolutely outstanding. The insights into color
printing were excellent.
Two questions:
What is all this Ikarus stuff ? Details anybody ?
Why were the color illustrations (except for the color fountain)
so pale ? They looked like they wern't saturated enough.
Also, a strange observation: on page mumble-mumble (damn, left the
issue at work) there appears to be a 1 point, white, vertical line
streaking down through all the text. Errant software perhaps ?

Don't look for it every quarter, either. Just a couple of weeks ago I too was starting to wonder if I would ever see another PSJ. Then the latest quarterly issue showed up. Looking through my files I discovered that previous to this, the last quarterly issue I got was about 3 quarters ago. I do suspect that PSJ is running into trouble. I mean, what are they going to do for material when they finish their (somewhat silly) tutorial series on PS operators? -- Roy Smith, System Administrator Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016 {allegra,philabs,cmcl2,rutgers}!phri!roy -or- phri!roy@uunet.uu.net

I've got Vol 1, No 3 in my hands, dated 'third issue 1987' and 'June 1987'.
For those who don't know of it, it's an excellent (if not only) magazine
on PostScript for users of all levels. There's even a "Graphics to the Editor"
section!!
The official word...
The PostScript Language Journal, ISSN 0891-5873, is published quarterly by
Pipeline Associates, Inc. Singles issues are $5 plus postage and handling.
Subscriptions are $15 for one year and $25 for two. Overseas add $4/year for
surface mail, $10/year for airmail. Address to PO Box 5763, Parsippany,
NJ 07054.
OK? OK!

No, but a few weeks ago I received a letter from McQueen Ltd., a Scottish company involved in the DTP market (as they wrote). I have never heard of this company before. The letter roughly contained the following: They apologized for the delay of the *premier issue* (???) of the *PostScript International Journal* and wrote that it will now be distributed in April '88. Subscription charges are 20 Pounds (UK), 22 Pounds (Europe) and 24 Pounds (elsewhere). I began to understand the letter, when I read the very last sentence: "Please note that for copyright reasons, the American PostScript Language Journal is not for sale outside the USA". I do not know how similar the PostScript Language Journal and the International PostScript Journal are because I have seen neither of them up to now. But it seems sure, that the PostScript Language Journal cannot be distributed outside the USA any longer.

Several peoples have been asking about the PostScript Language Journal. I also entered a subscription last year. The last version I saw was Volume 2 number 3. Haven't seen one since. Also, they never put the date of publication in their journal, so it's hard to determine when it was printed. Anybody know what's happened to this outfit? Does Pat Wood read this newsgroup? ........
