Abstract
The continua of type 1 Seyferts from 0.3 to 100 microns have been
examined. The authors focus on the modifying effects of dust, both in
terms of absorption and re-radiation. After allowance is made for dust
and the presence of extranuclear contributions to the IRAS fluxes, there
remains a ubiquitous underlying distribution which the authors believe
to be non-thermal. There is evidence that the thermal infrared
components corresponding to hot and warm dust may be associated with the
broad and narrow emission line regions.
