We are going on the assumption that the UPDF is a text file -
similiar to the PPD and GPD format. It's maybe a bit early
to specify exactly the text format since
we are just at the charter and requirement phase. I'll
make a note to make sure we address after the Charter
is approved and we start the actual specification.

Subject: UPD> UPDF File format
Hi,
Reading the InforWorld article and comments made by Michael Wu it would
seem it has been decided to use text file format. Is this correct?
Past e-mail messages and posted minutes don't indicate a decision was
made on the file type.
For UPDF to be of any benefit I require the UPDF format be compatible
between UNIX and PC's. Using a text file format works for me but I
would like to know if a decision has been made.
