818.0. "PostScript <LIST>(STACKED) Problem" by GNUVAX::SJONES () Tue Aug 18 1987 15:15

    Has anyone else seen this behavior? ---
         
         Stacked lists do not appear to work in tables processed for
         the POSTSCRIPT destination.  (My tests used the software 
         doctypes.)
         
         With <list>(stacked\braces), braces around the list elements
         appear as smudges rather than the hoped for braces.  Similar
         problems occur with the \brackets, \double_brackets,
         \vertical_bar, and \double_vertical_bar arguments. 
                                    
    If this is a known problem, my apologies----I reviewed the notes that
    have the postscript keyword without finding any mention of it. A fix or
    workaround (short of going back to the LN03) will receive thunderous
    applause from a group of frustrated writers down here.
    
    Thanks,
    Scott

818.1In V1.0?DECWET::KOSAKTue Aug 18 1987 16:405
    What version of DOCUMENT are you running?  These are known problems
    that I believe were fixed in V1.0.  We don't have V1.0 running yet,
    so I can't say for sure.

818.2Nope, BL08GNUVAX::SJONESTue Aug 18 1987 17:186
    We are running BL08.  If the problem is fixed for V1.0, I'll tell
    the writers to be patient.  We plan to install V1.0 within the next
    few weeks, I believe.
    
    Thanks,
