I have a variation on an FAQ.  How can one generate an EPSI format
file?  I can transform a PS file to EPS no problem, that's trivial.
But does anyone out there know where I can get my hands on a spec for
EPSI, which apparently has some for of text encoded bitmap preview,
and does anyone have any ideas for generating that preview. Perhaps
using Ghostscript to generate a bitmap, and then somehow properly
encoding that bitmap in correct EPSI format?

I'm using FrameMaker on a Sun, and it's really particular about
importing PS; it will only accept EPSI.  Any other ideas on getting
FM to accept a PS file as graphic, and not text would be appreciated.

Thanks,
