[comp.text] Can PS images be included in Troff

robinson@santiam.uucp (Bill Robinson) (08/19/90)

I'd like to include drawings (and bitmaps) in my troff documents.
Is there a way to include postscript (or other formats) files
for figures?

Thanks,

Bill Robinson

If you are talking about old troff, ie, for the C/A/T Phototypesetter, the
answer is no.

If you are talking about AT&T Documentor's Workbench, or compatible, the
answer is dependent upon the postprocessing software being used.  If you
are using Adobe TranScript, the answer is yes.  See the man page for psdit.
