I. Items or Events of Major Interest that Have Occurred
During the Preceding Week
A. Digital Prepress: EOCOM representatives visited Printing
& Photography Division this week to introduce their new Director
for Graphics Marketing, Jaro Terleckyj, and to discuss their
initiatives on the Laserite V raster image processor. The visit
was informative in that EOCOM is making progress on the raster
image processor and EOCOM has agreed to work with P&PD and page
makeup vendors for the interfacing of equipment.
B. ADP Activities:

Information System (MIS) for P&PD continues to operate
satisfactorily. Several reports have been generated from the new
system and corrections are being made to data resident in the
files. Development of the Job Tracking Module is continuing at a
slow pace due to the time being spent assisting LSS personnel
with system implementation.
2. A magnetic tape containing data to be processed in the
P&PD Electronic Text Editing and Composition System (ETECS) was
received from the Office of the US Trade Representative. The
tape was read into the Agency VM System, converted to a SCRIPT
file, and sent to P&PD on 21 February. The 3500 records on the
tape were transmitted to ETECS via VM in 30 minutes.
3. The Cascade Computer Aided Design (CAD) System was
installed in P&PD this past week with no apparent problems.
