[comp.lang.postscript] LIMITATIONS OF POSTSCRIPT INTERPRETER IN MATHEMATICA?

clark@randvax.UUCP (John Clark) (03/06/90)

Mathematica, from Wolfram Research, Inc., has a builtin postscript
interpreter.  Interested in discovering which postscript commands
Mathematica accepts and which it doesn't.  Info re other known
postscript limitations in Mathematica would also be useful.
Mostly interested in Macintosh version of Mathematica.

Will summarize if response warrants.

Thanks!

This is an often asked question, and so we are working on a report
documenting the limitations of the Mathematica PostScript interpreter.
Watch this space for announcement of its existence.
