No answer, just another question: (I have read the follow-ups to
this post, and since I am using a totally different EPS file and
am getting a similar message, I have a feeling it's a file -> 
Interleaf problem.)

I am currently working on an Interleaf (on Sun Sparc)
doc that has Illustrator files converted to EPS and 
I am getting a similar message on some of them 
(not all, which really makes it confusing!)

My message says:

	%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: mfx ]%%
	%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

And, FYI, this file prints just fine from Adobe Illustrator to 
the LaserWriter via the Mac, so I am wondering if 
the sticking-point is with the Interleaf software? 

I have compared the file that won't print to the ones that 
will and really can't see any difference, but I am by no 
means a postscript guru at all.  

Anybody have any other ideas?

(ps: I tried to e-mail to you, Mario, but the mail bounced.)

Thanks.
