We are using a spreadsheet called 20/20 for the SUN.  It produces graphs
under SUNVIEW that can be imported into Framemaker using the CAPTURE
command.  Of course any portion of a sunview screen can be captured this
way.  This is with Framemaker 2.0.  It is not available under Framemaker
1.3.

Well any postscript can be imported into Framemaker using a Postscript
TextRect.  However, the only way you can get WYSIWYG drawings is to use
EPSI.  The normal postscript TextRect will only show up on the printer.
