 Individuals that use \TeX{} (or any of its derivatives) to typeset
 their documents generally take extra measures to ensure paramount
 visual quality.  Such documents often contain mathematical expressions
 and graphics to accompany the text.  Since \TeX{} was designed ``for
 the creation of beautiful books\Dash and especially for books that
 contain a lot of mathematics''~\cite{knuth:texbook}, it is clear that
 it is sufficient (and in fact \textit{exceptional}) at dealing with
 mathematics and text.  \TeX{} was not designed for creating graphics;
 however, certain add-on packages can be used to create modest figures.
 \TeX{}, however, is capable of including graphics created with other
 utilities in a variety of formats.  Because of their scalability,
 Encapsulated PostScript (\EPS) graphics are the most common types
 used.  This paper introduces \MP{} and demonstrates the fundamentals
 needed to generate high-quality \EPS{} graphics for inclusion into
 \TeX-based documents.
