Has anyone been able to read IDL Encapsulated Postscript files (EPS)
into Powerpoint for the Mac or the new Powerpoint for PC Windows 3.0?

I have imported the EPS file into Latex, with no problem, but haven't
had any luck getting it into the Powerpoint.  I found Mac Powerpoint
could read EPS files generated by a Mac program (I think I verified it
with Adobe Illustrator)with no problem.  I used the Mac resource
editor to change the IDL file type to EPSF (to match the file type
that Adobe Illustrator had used).  Powerpoint then recognizes the file
as a EPS file but gets an error when it reads it in.  I even got
desperate enough to call Microsoft, but their support line didn't even
know what Postscript was, so I didn't get very far.  I recently tried
to import an IDL - EPS file in the PC Windows version of Powerpoint,
but you get an error like "file format is not one which can be
imported".  I had thought the Windows version might work since DOS
files don't have resource forks like the Mac.  I don't think the
problem is with IDL since I have had problems trying to get other EPS
files into Powerpoint.

Anybody have any suggestions.

Thanks,

Mike Plonski
