Overlaying the output fields on top of the eps.  When viewed/printed, it
looks like the original has been typed upon.

I break it into pieces, rather than using the whole page, as parts repeat.

I've tossed together a video showing this at
dochawkbk.com/eps_example.720.mov.

I suppose a widget that could display an eps would do on-screen (but then
again, for on-screen a 72dpi image will do), but that wouldn't solve the
print to pdf issue (but as I mentioned elsewhere, I think that only takes
one line of code.
