Hi..

	I suppose this a justifiably off-topic email! :) It seems that I and 
several others have had problems printing the postscript schematics of the 
ARP filters that were discussed at the end of last week. I'm happy to 
report that I found out why they won't print; here's how to fix them if 
you're having problems...
	
I found that there were two strange control characters which had got into 
the scripts. One was right at the start of the file; the printer didn't 
understand it and flushed the whole job, hence no printing! 

To correct the files, open them in a text editor which will show invisible 
characters. At the start you should see some funny symbol (on BBEdit, it 
apppeared as an inverted red question mark). Delete the symbol! There is 
also another at the end of the file. Save the cleaned-up version and print! 
They are very good schematics as well, by the way.


Happy printing
