For me, emf is quite good, but:
- 'test' command ignores linewidth
- 'test' command fails character width, while "centre+d text" is centered
  almost fine?
- it ignores iso8859_2 for accented characters -- could this be changed?
- it does not support coloured filled polygons (pm3d)

Looking to dxf.trm -- there is no black color. Does dxf / AutoCad have it?

And the embeded preview is not compressed -- the file is too big to be
useful. Aren't there some hidden options to ps2epsi?
