Can OPro (RISC OS and/or Windows) import pdf files ... with 'pdf' in the meaning of 'postscript document file', that is as files printed by Acrobat or RiScript ?
There is a PDF import filter for the Windows version of OP. It works by using GhostScript to produce a PostScript and a bitmap version of the PDF and then glues them together to form an EPS file which is imported.
At best this is non-ideal and (see Clive Bonsal's comments a couple of months back) at worst it doesn't work. Like any EPS file it requires a PostScript printer to give good results.
But on the other hand I have used this filter to good effect when Adobe's Viewer would not print some documents.
