in thread simple ppm question

Kinda, but not really. A .ppd isn't a binary archive, it's a plain text (XML) file.

Saying ".ppm" is um... artistic licence. The binary archive files are actually .zip files, but it's no good pointing PPM at any odd .zip you find lying around. You need to point ppm at a .ppd, which must have an associated .zip. All of which is not described anywhere I've seen.

So, yes and no. :)

    Licence revoked :)

      Gosh darn it! I didn't know that I needed a licence license, never mind that it was revokable :)

      Hm. I wonder who licenses the licence licensing authorities? And do they grant them any licence in the enforcement of those licence licenses?
