Waitasec - Newton eBooks' packages can contain more than one resolution? I
didn't know that! Why didn't anybody tell me? Seriously, folks, you coulda
told me - here I goes make books like mad, deliver 'em in a fat zip with the
etext source and a package for every of Newton's eight (!) formats, while a
single .pkg woulda been enough. What a waste of portability and bandwidth.

Now, please, let's get this fixed - how does this wonderful magic work?

Cheers,

DJV.
