Sorry if this has been discussed before...

We are using ptroff and pscat to print troff on a Postscript
printer.  I would like to include a Postcript figure in the troff
file.  The problem is that when I do this, pscat tries to typeset
the Postscript source.  I am using the .cf command in troff.
Is there any way to transparently pass the Postscript in the
troff + Postscript file to the final all-Postscript file?  (Note:
we don't have ditroff.)
