This is interesting. I thought that PDF had a more efficient way
of storing data than PostScript and as a result allowed for
faster reading and writing, although I've never looked into the
details. I haven't yet switched over from using grops to gropdf,
but I was beginning to think it was an inevitable path to better
document processing. Can you explain your preference for
PostScript a little further?

        Thanks,
