Nick is correct, however the book does mention that Cocoa apps can  
create EPS data from their NSView drawing and provides references to  
the related information. This is documented in:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/
ApplicationKit/ObjC_classic/Classes/NSView.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/
NSView/dataWithEPSInsideRect:

Hope this helps,
