I've implemented this, following the Adobe Technote, for the next release
as a core feature of Lout. You put
@IncludeGraphicRepeated { su_crest.eps }
at the start of the document but otherwise use @IncludeGraphic as
usual. This line has no effect on the appearance of the document,
but it makes the output shorter when @IncludeGraphic { su_crest.eps }
appears repeatedly. Lout takes care of all the issues described in
Uwe's mail: the bounding box, the string size, etc.
Thanks to Uwe for the pioneer work that made it feasible for me to
add this feature in a few hours' work.
