Not so. Object graphics output to Postscript can be done in raster or
vector form, depending on the setting of the VECTOR keyword.

However to the best of my knowledge, vector Postscript output is not
available from iTools. There are probably two reasons for this:

* Nobody got around to it
* Vector renditions of object graphics have various peculiarities
and limitations, as described in the documentation.
