Hi everyone, Part of my real work involves worrying about color matching for print and screen.

Hi Michael, As you know LPub tries to support MLCad's wonderful rotation steps and buffer exchange. Using the two together in LPub uncovers some incorrect behavior between the two. LPub does not deal with images when doing buffer exchanges as (...) (22 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
