re item 12 regarding IEEE pdf
Herb's sollution got rid of most of the errors, so the solution
worked - almost. Just one error was returned from the IEEE pdf
checker. That error is
"Error Acrobat version is less than 5.0"
If Herb or someone can suggest how to get rid of this one, I'd
appreciate it
thanks in anticipation
