You know something's up when you can see HOLE PUNCH shadows on the left
side of the page!

Also, am I the only one to see a fat black stripe down the middle of
some of the sample pages, like Stone Informal?  Are they doing this to
the "hot" fonts to protect their investment?  If so, I don't know why
they worry, given the scan quality of the sample pages.

The cover sheet looks computer generated.  I wish Adobe would move the
rest of FaxBack into the 90's.
