David, is this a Windows GhostView feature? I don't see any options like
this in the *nix versions. This is what you use to put postscript into
Powerpoint and the like presentations, isn't it? I've heard that in
powerpoint, you can't see a preview of the postcript plot while you are
constructing the presentation, and can only see it during full display.

Anyone have tricks to get the two to programs to work better together?
(Thinking about thesis/job talks for next year... *sigh*)

Thanks, Dirk
