I have installed a new 2nd drive and have run FDISK. I am ready to format the two logical drives, neither of which is a primary drive, but can not remember the format command in DOS. Could someone supply it? Thanks Bob

How do Encapsulated Post Script files differ from Post Script files? The reason I ask is Quick View Plus says it can be used to view Encapsulated Post Script files if a TIFF image is embedded in it. But it doesn't say anything about viewing Post Script files. Howard, unfortunately Quick View Plus isn't going to help you, either. An "EPS" file is related to PostScript in that EPS uses PostScript as part of how it describes images. I am getting out of my range of experience, but I'd suspect that drawing programs like Adobe Illustrator, which I know handle and display EPS perfectly, are likely to be able to display PostScript, too (though I could see why they wouldn't, because then users would expect them to be able to print to non-PostScript printers, which Adobe has little interest in promoting or supporting). What Quick View Plus is actually saying about the TIFF is that it can read a prerendered copy of the EPS image if that copy is included with the EPS -- in other words, there's the PostScript representation of the drawing within the EPS as well as a glorified bitmap, or TIFF (same idea as BMP or PICT depending on your platform) within it. Sort of like saying "I can summarize this book written in Greek if there's a short English summary printed on the book jacket."
