Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ \includegraphics and PSTricks

[coachbennett1981]

I am trying to add pictures to a file that I took snapshots from my textbook. I also wanted to include some graphs that I have that I created in PSTricks. However, when I put the graphics together with \includegraphics and that I have made in PSTricks, both won't show up.

The error message I get is:

! LaTeX Error: File `example3' not found.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...

l.99 \includegraphics[width=4in]{example3}

Now, I use TeXShop and change my output to TeX and DVI, not pdfTeX. Is there a way to include both simultaneously? Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

perhaps it's just a problem of the format used. Which format are you using for the snapshots? Since you use PS-Tricks, your snapshot images should be in one of the formats EPS or BMP.

The files save as PNG

Then, as I already suggested, change the format to either EPS or BMP.

Yes, you can run pst2pdf instead of pdflatex, then you can
use png/jpeg and PSTricks. But I never used it on a Mac OSX

I found that since I use TeXShop I already run and save to pdf. Thank you for your suggestions.
