[XeTeX] using xetex, leaflet and includegraphics
Hello list,
I want to create a leaflet with some fancy font stuff
(therefore using XeTeX) and some graphics (in png format) included.
\documentclass[dvipdfm,12pt]{leaflet}
\usepackage{fontspec,xunicode,xltxtra}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\includegraphics[width=3cm]{logo.png}
This is some more text.
\end{document}
Now, I have problems with the orientation of the paper.
I used xdvi instead of dvipdfm, and in both cases the orientation
is correct, but I cannot include png graphics:
! LaTeX Error: File `logo.bb' not found.
I tried to omit the option or use dvipdfmx instead, which
includes the png but the page format is wrong and the third column
runs out of the paper.
I use texlive 2009 from the latest Ubuntu distro (11.04).
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
Marc

Dvipdfm is neither able to use an XDV file, the intermediary output format of XeTeX, which you usually do not see, because it's piped to xdvipdfmx, which produces PDF. ! LaTeX Error: File `logo.bb' not found. Ebb produces the BB (XBB) file for dvipdfm(x). BTW, if you want to produce leaflets of arbitrary geometry, you should use the geometry package. -- Mit friedvollen Grüßen Pete A designer knows he has arrived at perfection not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away. – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

LaTeX Error: File `logo.bb' not found. Remember that graphics inclusion is not a job of TeX but a job of the driver. You have to find what the driver can use. Original TeX itself is not able to find the size of images, there are extensions that can do it for some graphic formats. And of course, when using XeTeX, you have to use a driver capable to process xdv. Ebb produces the BB (XBB) file for dvipdfm(x). BTW, if you want to produce leaflets of arbitrary geometry, you should use the geometry package. Or zwpagelayout. -- Mit friedvollen Grüßen Pete A designer knows he has arrived at perfection not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away. - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex -- Zdeněk Wagner http://hroch486.icpf.cas.cz/wagner/ http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

It can easily handle PNG and others, without needing a BB or XBB file. This line comes from using dvipdfm. And dvipdfm cannot operate on XDV files. -- Greetings Pete A morning without coffee is like something without something else. -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
[XeTeX] selecting lucida sans oblique
Dear xelatex users,
Do you observe the same behaviour as I do with the following code:
\documentclass{book}
\RequirePackage{fontspec}
\RequirePackage{xunicode}
\RequirePackage[french]{babel}
\setmonofont{Lucida Sans Typewriter}
\begin{document}
\texttt{\emph{test}}
{\bfseries\texttt{\emph{test}}}
\end{document}
Here, both «test» are typeset BoldOblique.
What do I have to do to select italic with this font?
Thanks in advance,
S.

Re: [XeTeX] Longtable package
This is another attempt. It makes longtable RTL but also has some problems so I am not yet happy with it. test.tex Description: TeX document test.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

The first one is not bold.

I believe there is only an oblique version of Lucida Sans Typewriter, not a
true italic. Thus, the behavior you see is correct, unless I'm missing
something in your question.

Re: [XeTeX] Longtable package
This one is even better but I have to fix two problems: 1- why there is too much vertical space at the bottom of page 1? 2- Why the last \hline in page 1 is not shown?
