  1. Re:tiff2ps on From Paper To PDF? · · Score: 1

    That is going to create a bitmap type eps file where each pixel is a point. That will not extract the text from the original document. You will need to use some of the recognition software (warning entering area where I know very little) I remember a product called "Text Bridge" that was supposed to take a scanned image and try to recognize the text within the image.

  2. This is great on Palm IIIe Announced · · Score: 1

    I just bought a IIIx for me and a III for my wife. Would have preferred to have gotten her a IIIe because of the screen.

    I used a wince. My experience is that I can store more addresses, todos, appointments, games, and applications in 2M on a palm than 8M on a wince. And it feels more than twice as fast with a 16Mhz chip than the 69Mhz of the wince.

    After using the wince I realize what is important to me. Convenience. I like not having to remember to recharge the thing EVERY SINGLE DAY. The times that I spend playing games are short bursts more suited to MahJongg than Doom. I wouldn't mind MP3, but I know I wouldn't carry head phones in my pocket enough to warrant it.

    I am glad to see palm continuing to develop a wonderful product and not be coerced into making it a GameBoy/RIO with an address book.

    Just my most humble opinion.
