I got it open in CS3. Give a minute to let me find the font.

yeah that would be awesome. They removed PM from our systems when we went to indesign... Fucking techs dont seem to understand all our old shit is in pagemaker and we cant convert it.

FB- sorry dude, its missing all the form boxes.

I thought InD imported them, but it wont touch that pm6 file.

Joe

I have PM on windows. Would that work for you?

Here is a PDF. It bitched about a Garamond Book condensed being missing but I couldn't find it in the document. Man I have forgotten how to use PageMaker. :rotf:
