| We just got bitten by this one too. I hope a fix will be available
soon (that is, something we can implement locally before a new
baselevel is released). Not being able to include rotated text
has rendered many of our drawings unincludable, and is proving to
be most cumbersome.
By the way, text rotated at + or - 90 degrees will include.

858.2 | Yup -- sorry about that | VAXUUM::DEVRIES | M.D. -- your Device Doctor | Wed Sep 02 1987 17:40 | 7 |
| The analysis of the problem is correct (the prolog redefines "concat")
and the proposed solution is also correct (it shouldn't).
As a workaround -- can you edit the figure file to use "rotate"
instead of "concat"?

| Hi Mark,
Wouldn't the better approach be to edit the prologue and change
concat to sonething like doc-concat? That way you only need to
edit the prologue once, rather than editing every picture you draw?
Is this possible? If so, where is the prologue kept?
Thanks,

858.4 | Yes, that's the way to go about it | VAXUUM::DEVRIES | M.D. -- your Device Doctor | Thu Sep 03 1987 09:50 | 14 |

Yes, that is what will be needed. I'm not in a position to make
such a change, test it, and distribute it right now, so I avoided
the subject. But if you want to do that, go right ahead.
The prolog file is DOC$PS_FONTS:DVC$PROLOG.PS.
Thanks,
Mark
