I was told in a Mathematica conference by Tom Wickam Jones that Mathematica Postscript does not support transparency because standard Postscript does not support it either. But AI 9.0 does for the first time support transparency and it does work quite well. I make lots of AI pictures with Postscript paths included made by Mathematica. But I did not try it out but it is certainly possible. You have to learn AI of course which is not self evident but quite rewarding. Indeed, I learned that Mathematica can make pictures but they are seldom good enough for publishing work. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/
