This page is an index for files that need to look a certain way when printed out, for example forms and brochures where the page layout is very important.
There are a variety of applications that can produce these printouts, including Openoffice, Glabels, and Gnumeric. please install the freegeek-deadtrees package in order to ensure that you have them all installed. if you include files on this page that are not supported by the above mentioned programs, please inform an ASS.
If there are files listed here that don't need to look a certain way when printed out, they should probably just be moved to a regular wiki page.
There are some files here that were originally uploaded as postscript files only. (The old system had a place for source files, but some authors did not commit their source files.) In those cases, the postscript file should be used as a basis for re-creating the document using open office or another appropriate application.)
