Ok, standard stuff then. > By the way : is there a way to convert ps to dvi ? i guess that doing a .tex file that embedds a .ps would be one way of doing that. It would be more meaningfull to somehow work with the source of your .ps though. abiword had some latex export functionality last i checked. > I don't use latex, so i think i cannot get dvi file at all. Have you a > solution ? I wonder what use is advi without latex sources though. One solution would be to get ant (ant is not tex, not the java stuff) to a proper way, and interface its low level stuff with a nice presentation making GUI, and feed the resulting dvi to advi. You could even combine them and have ant speak to advi's rendering code directly. I had plan for this, but not enough time to implement it. Friendly, Sven Luther
