Easy for you to say, you're not formatting the hardcopy :)

Seriously, I'm not certain that we can use .cgm format as a lossless
way for me to get figures into the hardcopy. But it seems like it
should work; my recollection is that Hannu helped test out formats
with me and we settled on .cgm as the most likely to succeed.

As soon as we have a complete set of .cgm files, and as soon as I've
tried generating hardcopy and jpegs or gifs for the .html, then we can
deep-six the .ag versions. In the meantime, it makes it easier on me
if we keep carrying those files in cvs.
