Help!

I've been trying to get MacDraw output integrated with TeX output using
ArborText's DVILASER/PS (VAX/VMS) Version 4.0 program.

Has anyone done this with either ArborText's or another dvi to 
PostScript conversion package?

I've gotten the LaserWriter prep file from the Mac to the VAX and have
made changes to it similar to those in ArborText's version. I've then
concatenated this prep file and a MacDraw PostScript file and 
successfully printed the combination from the VAX to the LaserWriter.

Integrating this with TeX has been a failure. I get an unrecognizable
set of dots and dashes for the MacDraw figure, and it overwrites parts
of the TeX text.

I have been able to integrate simple PostScript files with TeX.

	Tired of *real* cut and paste,
