I do not have the exact measurements in my head, I'm afraid. We begin with a large 'A0' paper, split that paper in two equally sized smaller (!) papers, gets a 'A1' and so on. Normal writing paper is A4. > Are you talking about the Moniterm (which can only be hooked up to a >MegaST)? Or is this some other type of moniter? What is that 1:1 >refer to? The name is of no importance, I think it was "Viking" or something like that. Yes, it can only be hooked up on a Mega ST (without hardware modifications. Atari hasn't included a processor bus on the smaller models of some stupid reason [like price?]) That isn't really a problem since they cost around 20,000 SEK (1 USD = cirka 6 SEK). If you really want to work proffessionally with DTP you'll buy a Mega ST and Calamus. That's a lot cheaper than a Mac or [phhf...] PC anyway. > > Inquiring minds wanna know! Mind?
