Yes it would, and it wouldn't be something you could throw at a printer and get optimal resolution etc. Plus storing it would suck =) I'd have to carry it on CD if I rendered to 600 dpi times 60 pages =) What I really want is to edit the PS file itself, and save as PS without the text that was covered up - then I could post the result on the Web without people accessing the hidden text from the PS. It seems like such a simple request, too! I mean, I've seen people edit PS by hand to move things in figures, but never to the scale I'm talking about. But it should be possible... > L. R.
