A post in April 2005 entitled "Grouping things with pdfmark"
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.postscript/browse_thread/thread/540ca6b9fd7487e8/
asked
> I use PostScript to create pages which are then edited in Illustrator. Like many drawing programs, Illustrator allows objects to be grouped and ungrouped. Can pdfmark be used to create such groups?

Expert opinion was negative. But one can achieve something like this
by putting grouped things in their own execform or clip region. Each
execform is effectively grouped, and can be ungrouped by releasing the
clipping mask. Not perfect, but functional.
