What I absolutely need is to be able to use an eps (or an arbitrarily sized png) as an inserted image in the same way as a jpg, gif, or png. There might be one on a page, or there might be a few, and they would display for the user on a regular card, with regular functionality of the other objects on my card. Then, when done, the page region of that card prints out as a pdf, the eps and everything on top of it (as a practical matter, all are fields) print out to my output pdf just like any other card. The output part is easy. While my Forth and PostScript are to rusty to remember the right verbs, it would be something like: put "begin image" & cr & file:"the_eps_to_include.eps" & cr & "end image" & cr after thePDFoutputSoFar As for on screen display, an eps should be far simpler than the containers for video and so forth. -- Dr. Richard E.
