Including an eps file is the easiest case. To my understanding OPI servers
are a participant in completing a PostScript stream that goes to a hirez
postscript output device. There may be a challenge setting up the OPI
server to translate TIF files as well as the other less documented highrez
image formats that desktop layout programs (PageMaker, Xpress) accept as
placeable images.
