I gotta question for all of ya that I hope someone has already solved.

I'm trying to create a postscript plot using IDL 4.0 on a sparc10 and
would like to import that image into Wordperfect on a Mac. I'm using
the following commands

set_plot,'ps'
device,bits_per_pixel=8,filename = 'test.eps'
device,/helvetica,font_size=12,font_index=9
device,/symbol,font_size=12,font_index = 10

plot,x,wall,line=2,title='TR = 30 ms; V!Dmax!N = 25 cm/s;Z = 31.5 mm', $
xtitle='!10Q',ytitle = 'Signal'
oplot,x,blood
device,/close

I then use the mac utility ps2eps+ to convert the ps to a mac eps
file. Everything works fine except the following:

1) the theta is messed up ('!10Q')
2) the y axis labels and title are all messed up.

Does anyone know another work around? We don't have ghostscript for
UNIX or pbmplus so if the suggestion is to use a UNIX util to convert
to the mac format I guess I'm SOL.

TIA,

Phil
