I have found that when I want to make drawings for publication, I almost invariably need to hand-edit the EPS. That has led me to prefer tools liks Dia or gEDA's schematic editor which produce simple EPS files. I didn't see Inkscape in your list. It's native format is scalable (svg), although not everyone can handle svg output. The downside is that it is one of those higher end tools so the learning curve is kinda steep. Still, the price is right. --McD -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
