Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer and EPS images.

Thanks Michael.
I am not too worried about rendering as long as the postscript in the 
EPS is output to PS in the print output.
I didn't realise there were so many bugs for this. My situation is more like
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81497
For now AOO solves the issue for me while I watch this bug resolution.
Of interest was that LO4.3 on my mac renders correctly on screen but 
prints incorrectly. If you can imagine that is quite misleading with an 
EPS with no preview.
