Things like advertisements, where form is more important than content, and the result will never be reused, are generally best done in graphic or page description languages (e.g., PostScript). Business cards are of course reusable, so this argument does not apply quite as well. The most straightforward way to put a logo onto a page using TeX is to make the logo a character (or several characters) in a METAFONT font. There are even consultants who will do this for you. -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci Dept (+1 301 454 7163) Domain: chris@cs.umd.edu Path: uunet!mimsy!chris
