How about LPub reading from a 'callout.ldr' submodel in the MPD file, and
adding an option to say "compile callouts from previously generated images?"

I'm actually thinking that the page layout stuff might belong in different
files with a syntax that is for page layout.  Once you've generated all the
images and you are to the point of rearranging them on pages, you don't want
to make changes to the files LDR files, because LPub will think they need to
get re-rendered.

Gotcha.

This might be a tall order -- but would there be any way for LPub to create
these callout elements such as numbers and lines in vector format, and write
out an EPS?

Encapsulated Post Script?  Dunno anytin' bout it.

(...) Understood. Would this sort of feature be possible with a plugin system, so someone else who did know about it could write that? Just curious. -Tim (21 years ago, 13-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
