Insert logo into virtuoso layout

Hi,

Is it possible to insert a logo (image) into virtuoso layout ?

I recall in the previous job (~ 12+ years back) one of our
CAD guys found a graphics-format to GDS-II converter
program, and I was able to convert & stream in some art
using that as a setpping-stone.

But a lot of companies don't allow that on production
masks anymore (weenies).

An other solution ?

Here is some links on how to convert GDS text labels to drawn text (polygons).
This is applicable to "klayout" software - so if you need to apply this for Virtuoso, you would have to save GDS file from klayout and import (stream in) into Virtuoso.
