EPS images
I don't know why my TeXnic Center doesn't accept *.EPS figures.
It says that it is an unknown file format... why?
I need to use *.eps images because with *.jpeg the quality would be lost.
Thank you

EPS images
can You give us an example of the error-code
and Your compiling-route?
something like:
Code: Select all
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\centering
\includegraphics{test}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
Remember, EPS only works with the following compiling routes:
LaTeX => DVI
LaTeX => PS
LaTeX => PS => PDF
but not with LaTeX => PDF !!!

I found the wizard in Build, Define Output Profiles.
The wizard built LaTeX=>PS=>PDF;
Latex=>PS=>PDF died in dvips. Dvips indicated the folllowing error:
Code: Select all
This is dvips(k) 5.95b Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2007.03.08:2313' -> GrphB.ps
<tex.pro><texps.pro><special.pro>. <cmr10.pfb><cmbx12.pfb>[1<clocklcopy.eps>
dvips: Could not find figure file ../IMG/clocklcopy.eps; continuing
]

That's it for tonight.

Have You tried to put clocklcopy.eps in the same directory
as Your tex-file(s)? There is a security problem with relative paths
for the standard call of dvips...
But You can add the option -R0 to the dvips call, which allows relative
paths...
Have fun!

There are many solutions, but one is to convert you eps figure to pdf using a program called epstopdf
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Ca ... topdf.html
You will need Ghostscript to be installed.

Re: EPS images

Keeping the eps file in the same directory as the source code fixed the problem.
Thanks to all especially Kris.

Re: EPS images
i have been have the problem the first guy had, it will not show any picyures in a pdf file, it says Unknown graphics extension: .eps.
i belive it is because i have a Latex => PDF only set up but i have been unable to get the wizard or manuale produce Latex => PS => PDF so if some one could help that would be great??????
on my computer it produced the Latex => PS => PDF automaticly but i am using my parents and have just installed texnicCentre and i will not do it.
Re: EPS images
How can I produce "LaTeX=>PS=>PDF"?
