I was wondering if there was any way to print off those beautiful Render
images without having to convert to a bitmap on the way.  The internal
"save" option of the module saves the scenes in something called
a Scenario file format (I'm supposing that SGI knows about this considering
they copyrighted it!)... and it looks like something awaiting direct 
translation to colour postscript.

So: question: am I stuck with either taking pictures of the screen or 
rasterizing to rgb or tiff files to get my data in full colour onto the
pages of "Nature"? Or can I make use of the scenario file format... or was
that to be supported in "the future"?

Thanks,
-Andrew. (andrew@platinum.uwaterloo.ca)
