Wolfgang, The next step is to run the ppower4 post processing component of the process. The brown cursor spots are showing where the pauses will be in the final document. The command to post process is ppower4 sourcefile.pdf destinationfile.pdf.
hope that helps, joseph
**************************************************************************** ************ Hi Matthias, thanks for the prompt response. Your suggestion helped. I also found it on the archive. Now I try to "pdlatex" the example file from http://www-sp.iti.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/software/xfig/ and get the complete figure only. There are small brown cursor symbols scattered around on the page, but it's just one page and "pause" doesn't work. The pdf file from the above web page is fine.

Hi Wolfgang,
try to add the following line to the preamble of your tex-file:
\DeclareGraphicsRule{*}{mps}{*}{}
It tells PDFLaTeX that a picture with an unknown extension should be treated as a MetaPost Graphic.
Happy TeXing, Matthias

Hi everybody, I am very impressed with the ppower4 package and it's applications. It's great in connection with pdflatex.
Unfortunately, I ran in the following problem recently and I have no idea how to fix it: I generated a xfig figure with different layers and saved it in "Multi Metapost" (mmp) format. Then I ran the command: mpost abc.mpp Sure enough I get abc.0, abc.1, abc.2, ......
Now I'd like to use these multiple files in combination with the pause command in pdflatex. I have a file that contains:
...... \input supp-pdf.tex \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx} \usepackage{pause,mpmulti} . . . \multiinclude{abc} . . .
When I run pdflatex on this file I get the error message:
Latex Error: Unknown graphics extension: .0.
See the ......
l.91 \multiinclude{abc}
etc.
How can I "force" pdflatex to accept other extensions like ".0", ".1", ..... (only .png, .pdf, .jpg, .tif are generally accepted).
I have a very recent version of pdflatex/pdftex and xfig (RedHat 8.0) and downloaded the newest ppower4.zip from Darmstadt.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Wolfgang
