I'm trying to find out if there is a method for converting either MacDraw/
MacDraft files or postscript files to a format that can be easily included
in documents prepared in the Unix environment.  The conversion that I
think would be most workable is from one of the above-mentioned formats
to a "pic" format.  (By the way, "pic" is a graphics preprocessor for
"troff", our text formatting and typesetting program)

If anyone has done this before, or knows of someone who knows of someone
who has done it, I'd like to hear from them.  If anyone has some
suggestions on how to do this, or wants to tell me that I'm crazy
for even considering this, I'd also like to hear from them.

Thanks!
