Thanks Jouni, that was a creative suggestion. Unfortunately it doesn't work on my windows laptop because dvips doesnt find the embedded file unless I either run dvips in the directory containing the file to embed or I pass an absolute path to includegraphics. I tried wrapping the \includegraphics statement with the catcode shifts you suggested, but it didnt work. Darren Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
