embedding ASL in pdf/html

[Adam Frost]

With the size issue, I would try to keep it the same with them all.  
The way that I do it is by adding "&size=xx" at the end of the url for  
the image where xx is the fraction of one to make it smaller or a  
multiple of 1 to make it larger. I personally find that .5 is a good  
start to see if the signs need to be smaller or larger. Just a quick  
thought. ;-)
