That's the point.  You can't just enclose EPS in braces and make it
into procedure (I believe the tech note says exactly this in first
paragraphs)

I believe Michael was giving other possible ways to deal with repeated
graphic - that is, when you have control over the format that graphics
coms in.  But in the real world what you have is often just an EPS
generated few yars ago and used corporate-wide (that's why I used SU
Crest as an example) and in this case forms and that tech note come to
rescue.
