   What is unclever about scanning and including the pixel file? If
your publishing software allows you to input a TIFF or other format
file, why not just do that? If the publishing software outputs PS,
then inputting the signature TIFF and outputing a PS file, bingo,
you have a PS signature. Why pay someone to do it? Are you writing
the whole document in PostScript directly?
