Pinkert</a> <pre>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Oi, I need to read the specs more carefull (although I find it kind of stupid to include a showpage in an EPS, because it messes with the postscript page). I will try the recommended solution (which is more a king of dirty hack) and see if the additional showpage stops having the effect of yielding additional pages. The postscript manual also recommends a save/restore pair around any imported code, which I had not yet in place. Thanks for pointing this out.
