It generates tpic \specials which must be interpreted by the dvi driver. There is a version of dvips around which supports tpic \specials. EEPIC is in fact an enhancement of EPIC, so you must load epic.sty and then eepic.sty. Both EPIC and EEPIC are available by FTP from sun.soe.clarkson.edu Micah Beck beck@cs.cornell.edu Cornell CS Dept.
