Greg,
Yes, it links pdf, eps, and other vector formats instead of embedding. I
don't remember if it can link svg. It retains vector elements and fonts
if you use the option "Embed eps & pdf files (experimental)" while
exporting finally to pdf.
Best regards,
Mukhtar

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, I'll look into that more carefully. But do you
know if it can
1) include linked pdfs (ie so that content will update when the external file
updates)
2) do so retaining vector elements in the linked PDF (rather than immediately
rasterising).
Many thanks,
Greg.
