The system needs to support typesetters and postscript output devices. It should be expandable to a 16 node network (though not all of the stations need the typesetting capability). The WSYIWYG window system is wanted. The newspaper I am involved in publishes twice weekly in 24 page tabloid form and needs to replace its current ATEX 4001 system. Any possibilities are appreciated. Thanks for the assistance and please respond by e-mail since this shouldn't clutter the news. hkbirke@media-lab.mit.edu...
