Videotex—glimpses of some facets

The European and North American videotex systems are introduced and their graphic capabilities contrasted. It is suggested that the public's perception of videotex is fragmented and that the inadequacy of the graphic capability of the present European systems is a contributory factor in this. Recent innovations within the UK are touched upon. An example is demonstrated of the type of reassessment required of a publisher's material when presenting this in videotex.
