Does anyone have knowledge of software that would integrate a scanner
and a printer with a FAX modem to produce the equivalent of a good FAX
machine? I haven't heard much lately of plans to manufacture a
combined laser printer and scanner in a single box. But surely the
software to link these peripherals must exist for a Windows platform?
I'd appreciate a note from anyone who can report success in this.

A colleague of mine is searching for a company that can do OCR on Chinese
characters . . . word has it that there is a firm in Germany that has such
a product . . . alas, no information on who, where, etc. Anyone?

Also, WordPerfect Corporation has just released a Chinese version of their
word processor -- unfortunately, no on in Orem seems to know where they got
their version of the Chinese character set . . . it was apparently purchased
in Taiwan. Does anyone know who is selling a Windows version of Chinese
characters?

Thanks.

Subject: Request for back issue of ACH newsletter

I am trying to track down an article that appeared in the _ACH
Newsletter_ in 1988. The article is:

Moulthrop, Stuart. "Containing Multitudes: The Problem of Closure in
Interactive Fiction" _ACH Newsletter_ 10 (Summer 1988): 21-46

Through my local Gopher I have only been able to find a 1992 issue
in an electronic storage form. Could someone tell me where to FTP or
Gopher to for the back issue that I'm looking for?

Many thanks,
