>I'm having trouble with text part of the ASC model retrieved from Taxcom.

I intially had trouble as well on a Mac System (haven't tried the new
version).  Important lesson I learned: always use FTP with binary rather
than say getting it with Gopher (straight ascii).  But 'wait' you say
Postscript is straight ascii - I think the explanation is that there is
some line-length restriction in the straight ascii protocol that Gopher
uses, which FTP binary gets around.

Maybe I'll send this to the Gopher people,

Best of Luck
