[...] For line graphics there is a possible solution. You can use the software tool pstoedit to convert a PostScript file into a DXF file (pstoedit is available for free on the Internet). The DXF file can then be translated into a Mathematica Graphics object by the DXF reader included in our circuit analysis toolbox Analog Insydes (a demo version of Analog Insydes can be downloaded from the URL in my signature). -- Eckhard ----------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Ing.
