Nice. I did this a little while ago too with the help of Frank and Miller in order to print out entire directories of patches. You might want to add this awk script into the chain (assuming it's still needed), it corrects the pointsize and position of object text in the postscript file.

i just got an idea how to easealy create antialiased images of patches, as someone had proposed this as a pdpedia feature erlier on this list.
in order to do it automaticly i first thougt of adding [loadbang]-[;pd print patch.pd( to each patch (by just echoing a few lines to it) but apparently pd doesnt recognize 'print' msg ..but there should be some other way of making it ( via tcl msgs , i suppose ) so then just a pstoimg can be used : pstoimg -antialias -aaliastext pd.ps
[shell] external can be used as well, actualy .. and maybe after [shell] returns 0, [; pd exit( can be sent.
i just have writen this in case someone is realy gonna add this feature to pdpedia ..
