Hi Dieter,

I just installed the upgrade. Only the form.pm and io.pl files though, because I
have no need for the locale or Dutch file changes. There are still formatting
problems with 3-page long invoices because the latex commands in the templates
specify page-breaks and such. When I try to comment out or remove the page break
commands I get the latex errors.
Also, the ps output ends right after the "All prices in CDN Funds" line. I tried
to comment out the curly bracket in the template and was again met with a latex
error.

Printing a pdf to screen and saving the output to a file still saves a file
named is.pl.html that is a pdf file with no useable content.

This is still a stick in the mud for me here... why do I get blank emails when I
don't run any M$ machines or products here?

Are there any files I could sent or output that might give you clue as to what is
happening?

Kind regards,
