We inadvertently omitted mentioning the company (Caere, Los Gatos, CA) in a December 1993 What's New write-up of OmniScan, its 400-dot-per-inch hand-held scanner.
In "Point-and-Click Presentations" (November 1993), the author incorrectly said that Harvard F/X, the bit-map editor in Harvard Graphics 2.0, does not support scaling and cropping of bit-map images; it does.
In "Printers in Transition" (December 1993), we stated that as printer resolution rises, required RAM increases exponentially. The correct mathematical relationship is proportional to the square of the resolution, because as you double resolution, you get four times the data.
The map in the December 1993 Report from Cyprus ("A Market in Transition") was incorrectly identified. According to experts in international relations, the international community recognizes the Republic of Cyprus as a sovereign state and does not r
ecognize two separate states within the island. Most countries (with the exception of Turkey) have not recognized the northern part of Cyprus as a state.
