- Is it possible to save something from Quark in ASCII encapsulated
- postscript form? I've been trying to help someone save an image from
- Quark in encapsulated postscript format, and all he can get is a
- postscript file with a binary header and trailer, with all the newlines
- in the postscript text removed. Since the newlines in the postscript
- text are all gone, the postscript text has the tokens at the end of
- what would have been lines 'glued' to the tokens at the beginning of
- what would have been following lines. This makes the postscript text
- useless.
-
- If there isn't a way to save the figure as ASCII EPS, does anyone have
- a program which can read the Quark binary EPS format and produce
- regular ASCII EPS? I imagine the binary header and trailer record
- where the newlines should be....
