Subject: Use supp-pdf.tex for other EPS?

Dear Hans,

 we have a graphics tool which exports simple postscript.  I would
like to modify the output so I can directly embed it into
LaTeX/ConTeXt files for pdf preparation, but I do not understand
enough of supp-pdf.tex for this.  Right now, we are using the
postscript commands

findfont
scalefont
setfont
setlinecap
setlinejoin
translate
scale
setlinewidth
arc          (only used for full circles)
closepath
fill
gsave
grestore
lineto
moveto
newpath
setrgbcolor
stroke
setdash

 Of these, I do not find the font commands, arc in supp-pdf.tex and instead
of setlinewidth, some dtransform command I did not meet before.  I did
find the comments on the latter in the tex file -- is there some way
to use setlinewidth directly or should I change our code to emit the
more verbose form listed in supp-pdf.tex?  arc probably needs to be
replaced by an equivalent curveto command, right?  As for the font
commands, they need to be replaced by fshow, correct?

 We use these commands with floating-point arguments.  Would you
expect any problems with supp-pdf.tex?
