Additional Information
The ATI Rage 128 Graphics Accelerator, which is included with Apple's blue-and-white G3 computers, increases display performance, but also causes redraw problems in PageMaker 6.x.
The ATI RAGE 128 update 1.0 from Apple updates the ATI Graphics Accelerator from v.3.7.9 to v.3.8. The files included in this update fix the bounding box problems in PageMaker 6.5x. However, the issues with text blocks are not fixed in this update.
