I had 8.0 for the cases where that failed, but you can't run both at once. If you run another one, it just passes the file to the first one. Some time ago, I wrote a program to generate LZW compressed PDF from scanned bitmaps as PDF 1.0 files. (Among other things, only the usual 7 bit ASCII is allowed.) Later, I wrote on for JBIG2 compression, which I believe is 1.2 (That is, Acrobat 3.0.) But yes, many files require newer versions. -- glen

It is a three table method for either sine or cosine.i still don't get it. you only need a table or tables for the delta's. #2 and #3. i don't get what table #1 is about. you start out with sin(w)=0 and cos(w)=1 and pick the sin(deltaw) and cos(deltaw) outa 2 tables (or, if you're a teeny bit clever, a single table), and then have at it with the recursion equations above. i don't see a 3 table method. -- r b-j rbj@audioimagination.com "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Tables #2 and #3 represent values of sin(deltaw) and cos(deltaw) for 2^N values of deltaw in the interval between the first two values of w that address table #1, say the interval from 0.0 to 0.5*pi*((2^N)-1)/(2^(M+N)).> r b-jDale B.
