Wait a minute . . . shouldn't a checkbox be a postscript drawn object, not a bitmap? That would be *easier* in postscript than a bitmap (although I've never written pdf directly; just postscript. Is there a shortcut?) A sane postscript output would put functions into the output, and each box or checkbox would be a function call with 5 paramaters (2 corners & width); and similarly for a line. The pdfwriter code seems to be only a few pages long, but I haven't gotten my c++ (let alone objective c) back up to speed yet. BTW, my output is completely devoid of bitmaps (OK, there is a single repeated bitmap in the cover page pdf; the firm logo). -- Dr. Richard E. Hawkins, Esq.
