(in fact, it should *be* identical for *everything* save for any variation in line termination used in the filename of the external [if it be external] eps). Displaying at screen res can't possibly be all that hard; it's a one-time render that would only change if the pixelDensity (?) was changed (I actually do that to scale output windows to readable size). I used to use .eps as background images when I did this in openoffice ten years ago . . . (the only feature I can name offhand that openCalc can has that excel doesn't. Oh, and the openWriter display editor--years ago, I found my students were doing their stat homework in with openWriter because, unlike Word, it's equation editor is useful) -- Dr. Richard E.
