Looking for 3dfaq author Joel Alpers

[P3D Ralph Johnston <copley@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have some corrections and additions to the format section (pg 35) of the
3dfaq.  I sent them to Joel Alpers at the address on the first page of the
FAQ but it bounced.  Who is maintaining this document?  Where is Joel?

I obtained this from

http://bobcat.etsu.edu/ftpdir/photo/photo-3d/info/

It is available only in postscript (.ps) and in adobe acrobat (.pdf)
formats.  Can everybody read these?  How about a Microsoft Word (.doc)
version?  I could convert it but it would be a lot of work.  I could also
maintain it if no one else is willing.  This would need Joel's permission,
however.

You need a postscript capable printer to print postscript files.  For
acrobat, you need the reader which can be downloaded from the Adobe page.
It should work fine if you have your own local printer.  I tried to print
over a network and it filled up the buffer and crashed.  Each page is 2Meg
and there are over 50 pages!  So I used postscript instead with no problem.

There is a shareware program called RoPS that can extract text from a
postscript file.  The graphics all have to be redone, however.

The FAQ is very well done and should be required reading for all photo-3d
subscribers.
