Thank you very much! And the same goes for everyone else who took the time to reply. I think this solution will be my best bet; I don't fancy the 20MB download of ImageMagick with my analogue modem... Having just taken five minutes or so for a preliminary test, I find that Jpeg2ps plus epsf.tex does what I want it to do with a minimum of time and hassle. Thanks again.

Or is there an (equally quick and easy) way to insert a BMP, JPG, GIF (or whatever) image in a TeX document (*not* LaTeX!!) without first converting to EPS? you'll have to convert to eps for plain TeX. Using convert to do so will work but produce too large files for jpgs. [e]ps level 2 is actually capable of imbedding the actual jpg data inside.

Be aware that jpg is not the best format for high contrast line drawings but more suitable for photographs.

Re: [TeX-music] Off-Topic: EPS graphics
jpg, tiff (nominally) and png will go direct into pdftex (using the plain version of the latex graphics package) otherwise, use convert (from the imagemagick package) to make .eps (level 2) of the thing. if you're using dvips as output, the chances are that you can't do any better. there's some witter about all this at http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=dvipsgraphics robin ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

quick and easy way to convert a BMP, JPG, GIF (or whatever) image to EPS format? Use ImageMagick's convert.

Re: [TeX-music] Off-Topic: EPS graphics
Hello The Gimp can do that (i've just tried and it works fine). It supports lots of format file. I think that XV can also export in postscript. I don't know if there is an image loader in (La)TeX. regards Vincent TORRI On Wed, 11 Sep 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all, TeX-related if not directly concerned with music: Can anyone suggest a quick and easy way to convert a BMP, JPG, GIF (or whatever) image to EPS format?

If you're using Windows, download Paintshop Pro. If you're using Unix, install either the netpbm or imagemagick package. Note that ImageMagick also works perfectly on Windows. Using the netpbm package, you will need the commands giftopnm (or whatever) and pnmtops. -- Peter Vanroose. ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
Re: [TeX-music] Off-Topic: EPS graphics
xv, whenever i've used it for format conversion, has produced output that's at screen resolution That 's its default behaviour. In the save box, you can select the box saying original size; if you do so, the simage is saved at its original size and not at the currently visible shrinked or enlarged size. -- Peter Vanroose. ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
