Yeah...
I was particularly interested in eps doing quadratic as I wanted to add
eps output for cartographers. It's something fairly easy to do.
Anyone have a non trivial knowledge of eps and in particular, how you
associate a comment in eps with a line so it shows up as a property of
the line in Illustrator (or whatever)?
