grace -> pdf broken after 1.4.4 upgrade

2007-02-18 Thread Neal Becker
Looks like this converter isn't being used when a doc including grace graphics is exported to pdf (using pdflatex): \converter "agr" "pdf2" "gracebat -hardcopy -printfile $$o -hdevice PDF $$i 2>/dev/null" "" I get a blank pdf file for the graphic. If I run this command manually, it works fine.

How does eps scaling work?

2007-02-18 Thread Neal Becker
I now understand that the problems I've been seeing with graphics have nothing to do with the 1.4.4 update, it is because of a ghostscript update, and ghostscript is crashing in epstopdf. I changed the eps->pdf to use ImageMagick's convert. Now I have images, but they don't appear to be scaled
