My thoughts exactly :-)

I did this for a while. I created my own printer definitions etc, so I could
print PDF files from windows programs as if it were any other printer. It
worked fine, but I am still glad I got PDF writer/Acrobat Distiller. The
results are far better and more controllable.

Note: I do not own Adobe Inc. stocks, if that's what you were thinking :-)

No, you are mistaken: eveything in The Netherlands ("The" should be
capitalized, as it is part of the name) lies near Utrecht. Although, I live
in Krimpen aan den IJssel, which is near Rotterdam, which again is quite
near Den Haag (The Hague, we are so fond of using articles in geographic
names). But I go to university in Utrecht, which is not that far either...

Hmm... I think I just made your point.

> Tiny overpopulated European countries...
We are proud to be the most densely populated country of Europe, besides teh
city-states of Vatican City and Monaco, with a proud 420 people per square
kilometer and a total population of over 16 million. And we cannot even
build skyscrapers because our soil is too damp.
