Sorry if this has been asked a billion times...


How do I convert an object-oriented PICT file to encapsulated postscript?

I would prefer a ASCII encoded preview image (for FrameMaker on multiple
platforms) but a PICT preview image would be ok (I have a tool to convert to
ASCII preview).

A straight EPS with no preview image is the final (least desirable) solution.


Note that the images include graphics and text.  I tried Aldus DrawOver, but
it doesn't handle the text.




Okay you postscript hacks out there.  Dazzle me.
