Have you tried printing to a file and going from there? From what I've seen, M$ print-to-file is essentially postscript with an extra line at the top. If you chop that out, so that the first line begins with something like "%!PS-Adobe-2.0", you should be able to run ps2epsi to generate encapsulated PS. Printing to a file from OpenOffice.org should be exactly a postscript file. I've never worked with transparent objects before, though (at least not in postscript), so I don't know if this will be any better than what you've tried already. -- Michael A.
