The 2 responses are great. Thanks for contributing these. Now to figure out how to convert the yet-to-be-scanned signature from the appropriate image format to PCL5. That begs the question, anyone out there (or you, Bill) care to contribute enough information to me that I don't have to do any more work than I have to? 8^} I'm running a Linux workstation and will be checking out the ps2pdf-like utilities that abound on this marvelously techy-geek friendly platform.
