mom's PDF_IMAGE macro could remain a float with lots of bells and whistles to the user but make use of an underlying macro-set-agnostic macro to do the PDF inclusion as Tadziu suggested; "provide a bare-bones PDF image includer à la PSPIC instead". IOW, bits of PDF_IMAGE's functionality are useful elsewhere; can that be factored out and made available? Cheers, Ralph.
