Any views on the relative merits of Prosper and Utopia? (See 
http://prosper.sourceforge.net/ and 
http://www.utopiatype.com.au/pdf.html)

If you have Acrobat, it isn't hard to crop formulas out of typeset PDF 
documents and paste them into PowerPoint presentations. But maybe a 
TeX-only solution is better.

Larry Paulson

PS You can also insert cropped bits of PDF files into diagrams drawn 
using Stone Create. But this doesn't seem to work with Illustrator.

I commented the other day that u-build didn't work with the latest
dvips.  David Wilson at UtopiaType has just sent me a new version
which works fine now.

Using the built-in graphics capabilities, does anyone have the code 
template  for creating one of those 2x2 boxes used so much by 
consultants. Like 'high' 'low' 'rich' 'poor' with simple labels in each 
dimension and a label in each box? Or has everyone just gone to using PS 
and EPS inserts generated from other programs? If so, does GIMP work ok? 
or OmniGraph? Also, I can't get the insert .eps command to work, at 
least according to the way it is listed in the Lamport book. Any simple 
place to look for a how-to on this?

I use OmniGraffle for those types of illustrations.
