EPS Format

[PN...@directsourcing.com]

I know it is possible to embed postscript fragments in an pdf file using the
PS operator. I have never seen an example of such a pdf file. Spec says
about being able to print these pdf files on PostScript printers. But
remains silent on wheather I would see that pdf file in a viewer. 

Can somebody provide an example of such a pdf file or could throw some
light?
