Hi,
I think I know what I want. I'm just not sure if it can be done
or how to get there if it can. What I want to do is have two versions
of each image in a file. If the printer is color capable then I
want to use image A. If not then use image B. Sound simple enough.
I can even do it in postscript. The problem is that when you distill
it the black and white stuff gets thrown away. I've not used pdftex
but as best as I can tell it supports the alternate image capabilities
of PDF. Does this give me what I want/need? All I've gotten so far is
the PDFTeX User Manual. Is there something else that shows some examples
of how to do this? A gentle nudge down the correct path would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks.
