[Dixielandjazz] Chicago

[John Farrell]

Elazar,

Try converting your Encore files to .pdf, a very simple operation which I do
all the time, but you will need Adobe Acrobat (or something similar) to
carry out the conversion. Attach the .pdf file to an email, recipients who
do not have Encore will then be able to read it.
