If gv can display the problematic EPS file then maybe ghostscript can "distil" it into something that is usable by latex and OOo: eps2eps old.eps new.eps Sometimes I find that the best result (i.e. smallest file size while preserving high print quality) can be achieved by going to pdf and back: pstopdf old.eps pdftops -eps old.pdf new.eps (Eps2eps is part of ghostscript itself; I use pstopdf from package "context" and pdftops from "poppler-utils".) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
