We are trying to use the following combo :

DISSPLA on a VAX/VMS system to generate plots, saved as a Postscript file.
psfig/TeX to include this Postscript file into a TeX document. And we are
having some problems, mainly having to do with the plot being overwritten
by TeX text.  I have used psfig/TeX with Postscript files generated from the
Macintosh and have had good success.

Is anyone out there using DISSPLA and TeX combo ?

Someone had suggested here a long time ago about having to change something
in the Postscript file when using the \special command, like user coordinates
or some such thing.  DOes anyone remember that ?
