Thanks for the reply. I gave this a try, but there is trouble with
the Mathematica-specific fonts.

Obviously, I'd rather not have Courier substituted for these fonts. I
also used pstoedit to convert the EPS file to the Sketch format.
pstoedit didn't complain about the fonts. However, when I open the
file in Sketch, it complains about not finding Mathematica{1,2}-Bold.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kevin
