Not simple, but you could write a Postscript file that did the work. If I was writing it, and I knew the label was 2in wide (144pt) and 0.5in tall (36pt) I might do something like: %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Pages: 1 %%EndProlog %%Page: 1 1 36 144 324 { % x: first at 36pt, last at 324pt, incr 144pt 36 36 360 { % y: first at 36pt, last at 360pt, incr 36pt save translate /showpage {} def 0 setgray 0 setlinecap 1 setlinewidth 0 setlinejoin 10 setmiterlimit [] 0 setdash newpath userdict begin dnl THIS BIT IS PROCESSED BY m4 %%BeginDocument label.eps changequote(,) include(label.eps) changequote %%EndDocument dnl END m4 DIRECTIVES end restore } for } for showpage %%EOF This needs to be preprocessed with m4, but should come close to doing what you want. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
