[PPower4] Help required

2004-02-24 Thread Sudarsan N.S Acharya
Dear all,

I used gnuplot (version 3.7 patchlevel 2) to generate eps figures and 
converted them to pdf using epstopdf (version 2.7), under debian (Linux 
version 2.4.22) . Basically my figures are 2-D graphs with the usual X and Y 
axes. When i use such a figure in a pdf presentation created by ppower4, the 
X and Y axes colours turns into white (from the usual black as generated by 
gnuplot). Surprisingly the colour of the actual graph that is plotted remains 
undisturbed. I created another copy of the same presentation without using 
the ppower4 package and everything works fine. I tested with adobe acrobat 
5.0. I would be very glad if someone can help me in this regard.

I wish you all a great day.

Regards
Acharya

This sounds strange, but may be due to the fact that you may have used
the setup which uses white letters on colored background - which is
not really a feature of PPower4, but a setup in some demo documents.
This color setup may be active when you include the pdf figure and
because pdf often does not specify a default color of its own in the
beginning, because the default should be reasonable, the current color
will survive until the next color change. Just select the proper color
you want for your axes before including the figure and everything
should be fine.
If you change the current color in the other copy and then create a
pdf from it the effect should be similar.

Enjoy
Klaus
