Excellent.  Now tell us about the nutcracker!
Availability, price performance...
Is it really necessary to communicate between east 
and west Europe!!??  I know o(nothing) about Wintel.

Thanks. I have extracted the PNGs by hand and
temporarily posted them as TIFF files at the 
ftp address:

  ftp://topo.math.u-psud.fr/pub/lcs/bernstein

If someone knows how to put a PDF wrapper around
those more efficient TIFF G4 files please pipe up!

In case you have to extract PNG's from MSWord ".doc"
files in future, here is a fact that should help. The
PNG segments begin with the 4-char sequence (in
Knuthian 7-bit notation):-

     ^^89PNG

and terminate with 

     IEND^^aeB`^^82
