If you are not interested in investigating available solutions,
you can of course invent your own. But clearly you have not
read the PostScript manuals, or you would not have to use new
vocabularies like 'standard postscript' to express the semantic
entity Adobe calls 'Encapsulated PostScript [File]' or EPS[F],
for short.

PS You are aware of the fact that PostScript is not what you would
call 'free', right? It is just as proprietary as PDF; both being 
designed, published, copyrighted, trademarked and controlled by
Adobe Inc.
