How to include several .eps-pages in ps-latex?

Post by johannesd »

Hi TeX'ers

Anyone tried to include several pages of .eps-files into their document?

What I would like is completely similar to what the usepackage "pdfpages" does (i.e. delete footer and header and include a full-page file over several pages), but with eps files instead.
All my other figures are made in .eps and I have some articles I want to include in my phd thesis. Hope someone can help :-)

I'm using the report documentclass.

With the dvips output driver it is impossible to select individual pages of a multi-page Postscript file for inclusion. The reason is that the underlying PS special `psfile', used by package graphicx and other packages which derive from it, does not provide a `page' option. See the dvips manual section on the `psfile' special:
