File "c14_cd.Zip" contains both ArcView 3.2 shapefiles and Arc/Info export (.e00) files of the geologic data as available on the project CD.

WHEN PRINTING, LEVEL 2 POSTSCRIPT PRINT METHOD MAY NEED TO BE SELECTED FROM OPTIONS IN THE PRINT DIALOG BOX. There also have been problems when printing to large format plotters from Windows if the host machine prints using another networked computer as a spooler. The large maps usually fail to print. This problem has been solved by creating a port that accesses the plotter over a network directly without using an intermediate computer. Any questions concerning, or notification of problems relating to, the digital data should be directed to: Rich Lively or Tim Wahl Minnesota Geological Survey 2642 University Ave. St. Paul, MN 55114 612-627-4780 lively@umn.edu or tewahl@umn.edu
