Many people here use framemaker to produce pretty documents. Currently, in
order to incorporate IDL plots, we write PostScript files and import them into
framemaker. Using the IDL command:
device,/preview
gives framemaker a low-resolution rendition of the IDL plot to view on the
screen before the document is printed. However, we are unable to alter the
plot within framemaker; all we can do is embellish it. A better method of
incorporating the IDL plots would be to use the "make interchange format." If
IDL would produce a plot in make interchange format, then, in framemaker, we
could alter the plot, making it easier to produce annotations.
All this leads to the question: Has anyone written an IDL device
driver for maker interchange format?
