Ghostscript (more specifically the pdfwrite device) no longer executes and stores each instance of a form, and hasn't done for a release or two. The next version will include a still better implementation which doen't get confused by pdfmarks in the form. If the settransfer is ignored by Mac Preview, even though its valid, surely this is a problem with Mac Preview, not pdfwrite ? > and it ignores some types of call to pdfmark. True, but not many and shrinking all the time. Plus, we listen and are still developing the product :-) Ken
