In 1993, I wrote an AWK script that extracted EPS graphics from FrameMaker files and spat them out one-by-one. That was on a NeXT station. You may be able to do something similar for embedded PCX files, although FrameMaker may have converted them to FrameImage format. Save your file as MIF and have a poke around. Paul
