Here's the (minimal) code that produces the "cropped" image.

\documentclass[12pt]{report}

\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{pst-xkey}
\usepackage{pst-asr}

\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{external}
\tikzset{external/system call={xelatex --jobname="\image" "\texsource"}}
\tikzexternalize ...

After googling around a bit I figured out how to get the 2nd option to work.

1) Use the code provided by Stefan_K
2) Include the pst-asr figure in a pspicture environment (like Stefan said) as so:

\begin{tikzpicture}
\node{\begin{pspicture}
{\asr \4ki:p\endasr}
\end{pspicture}};
\end ...

Thanks for your quick reply.

I'm afraid I don't understand how I'd actually carry out either method you recommend. Could you please provide some more details?

I chased up the pgfmanual for tikz, but at 1165 pages and with only a single hit for the string "pspicture" I decided it would be more ...

I'm using the pst-asr package to include autosegmental diagrams in my linguistics thesis. However, I also want to use XeLaTeX.

This is possible, however the compile process is very slow. (No problems if I compile LaTeX => PS => PDF)

It takes approximatelty 10 seconds (on my current computer) to ...

Hello,

This seems to be a pretty common problem, but I haven't found a satisfactory solution.

I want to have a tabular with an \hline at the top in which the contents of the top row are aligned with an enumeration. So far I've managed to get the following unsatisfactory results:

the enumeration ...

Hello,

For posterity, I found the following code created a speaker symbol which dimensions that fit well into a 12pt document (with mathptmx for Times style font).

\newcommand{\spk}[1]{
\begin{tikzpicture}[#1]
\draw[thick,rounded corners=0.1pt, fill=black] (0,0.0909) -- (0,0.1636) -- (0.0909,0 ...

Of course... It seems so obvious now it's been suggested!

Thanks hugovdberg; you've been a great help!

Hello,

I'm writing my linguistics thesis in which I plan on embedding a number of sound files. I use the same code to embed each file, the only difference being the name of the MP3 file.

Is it possible to define a shortcut to reduce the length of the code I use each time I embed a file? I ...

Thanks, the third solution is the closest to what I want.

I'll muck around with it until it's the size I want.

Thanks again!

Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted!

Could you post the code for how I'd extend \includemediaorposter to display different poster text depending on whether or not the media is included?
