Hi, every comp.sys.sgi subscriber,

     First I would like to say thanks to those who helped me to fix
the problems I had in using Showcase.

     Now I found another problem.
     Is there anyone familiar with PS and EPS stuffs? The question I have is
that I have some EPS files which I can both see on xpsview and print on Mac
LaserPrinter (I just used lpr) but I CANNOT insert them into showcase.
Showcase just gave me a blank block with the EPS file names printed in the
middle of the block.
     (Enclosed you can find an EPS file which has that kind of problem.)
     Does anyone know why this happen?

     Thanks in advance.
