The solution for the thread about EPS inclusion in presentation programs could be to generate the EPS with preview. The preview is a little binary file ahead of the EPS code. It can be added with the utility eps2epsi

eps2epsi file.eps > file_with_preview.eps

Then, you include the file in the presentation. What you see in the screen is a "bad" representation of your eps in a bitmap format..ugly I know... but once you print it, you will print the eps and not the preview.

Also works within OOo if you export into pdf.
