Yes, Professor Hershey does. :-)

Alan Hershey is (I think) a Professor Emeritus here at NPS.  I see him in the
halls here every once and a while.  He runs his graphic system on our ancient
IBM and plots the output on a Versatec plotter.  He does them up full plotter
width (24 inch, I believe) and then has them photoreduced. They look
beautiful.
