MOTM

Can the average PC read it that way? Normally, it can't read an EPS, but
maybe the Acrobat reader does the translation? I've never tested that out.

Take it from someone using a PC that has to send files to Mac users on a
weekly basis-there* is *no common vector file format. On a PC, WMF works
everywhere very well, but there is no way for a Mac to read it. EPS seems to
work fine on a Mac, but cannot be read by 99% of PCs and can be problematic
on that last percent. (Especially when the person on the other end doesn't
know what they are doing, and you might be AMAZED at the amount of people
who are totally computer illiterate that buy a Mac and decide to go into
desktop publishing. It's just amazing. I spend at least four hours a week,
red-faced, screaming into a phone at someone trying to simply explain the
difference between raster & vector! I mean, this is their JOB!!. Sorry for
venting. Sore spot.)

Vectors can be rasterized and exported to gif for web browse-ability, as
for the catalog, saving as Encasulated Postscript (EPS) will compress very
nicely into a PDF document. -Nate>
