A PLT port of SLIB format is available at schematics.sourceforge.net via 
CVS (look in src/libs/format) or by getting the scm-pdf download which 
includes format.plt. Advantages include a smaller footprint than loading 
all of SLIB and it also avoids SLIB's somewhat PLT-incompatible 
packaging scheme.
