I am using a standard LaTeX document class for presentations (prosper), which requires me to use latex+dvips+ps2pdf, and dvips only supports .eps for images... Do you have the same problems? I can't imagine why a simple bitmap->bitmap conversion (without loss, as opposed to jpeg!) would have this kind of effect.

GIMP reports that "eps does not support transparency". -- Felix Natter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
