Earth Sciences Lines: 10 A rotated, 3-dimensional plot shown in perspective requires characters with bounding boxes that are trapezoids. Anybody have a PostScript routine that will map a character into a trapezoidal bounding box? Also: it is rumored that there is a shareware set of example 3-D PostScript plots from an outfit called "bersearch"(?) -- anybody know of an ftp site where this is available? Thanks, Craig.
