Any specific reason you prefer eps files? PV is only going to give you raster images, so eps isn't an advantage as far as I can tell.

I think you can get quite good results with png's. Save your PV image in .png format (File-Save Screen Shot), in as high resolution as you can. In other words, make the PV window large. You have to have \usepackage{graphicx} or \usepackage[pdftex]{color,graphicx} or something similar at the start of your LaTeX file. Use width option of the \includegrahics command to get the image the right size in your document. I use Kile 2.0 editor and it inserts all the bounding box and other info correctly, which is very nice feature.

Hi all,
   I'd like to use paraview images in a latex document. So far, I can
see two options:
1) Save Screeshot as pdf -> works, but I would prefer eps files
2) Save Screeshot in whatever format and convert it to eps -> this
works but the quality of the eps is very bad.

Does anybody have any suggestion? (Linux if possible, but Windows is
also fine).

Thank you in advance!
   Marco
