This may be a bit far out, but is there such a thing as a graphics
editor which stores/retrieves the edited images using a PostScript
file?  I've heard of PostScript-displaying utilities, so it must be
possible to convert a page discription for an on-screen presentation.
What I'm looking for is something which would read the PostScript
file for a page, put it on the screen, allow the user to select/
modify/add items to the picture, and store it back in PostScript,
which could then easily be hardcopied via laser printer.

Any such product would be a start, but specifically we'd like
something which will work on an Apollo.

Thanks in advance for any useful info.

Only from the mind (?) of

KCB
