I wonder if anyone has experience getting mathematica 3.0 fonts into an eps file suitable for inclusion into latex2e. (I found a fix on wolfram's site to handle the incorrect eps bounding box problem with 3.0 ps header file.) I managed to get the eps files included all right into the latex2e file, but the special mathematical characters are lost. ideally I'd like to use some special mathematical characters in the eps file. they need to be embedded in the eps because it'll go into the latex file. hence I can't use their supposed "fix" given on the web site that downloads the fonts to the printer (i.e. doesn't put them in the eps file). ideally either mathematica would define the symbols it needs in the epsf file, or maybe someone has a slick utility that will add to the inside of an epsf file the nonstandard fonts that are used in it? that would be pretty neat. I suppose I could use that utility (forget the name) that puts LaTeX fonts into the eps figure (that will be what I do next probably) but it would be a bit of a letdown. unfortunately the whole mathematica font files take up 700k or so so putting the whole thing into each eps is unweildy. thanks; -- ~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^ "in theory, there's no difference vznuri at netcom.com between theory and practice, mad genius research lab but in practice there is!" http://www8.pair.com/mnajtiv/
