Thank you for your prompt reply.

A PS module asyou suggest would certainly be highly desirable from our 
perspective of. Even more ideal would be a license module for the 
requirement of a Transparent copy, as in the GNU Free Documentation 
License: that is, a copy of the media being published in an open, public 
format that does not require expensive software to edit.

Kind regards...
