Dropping eps2eps line and putting a -E switch on dvips works well in most cases.
Re: Annotating eps figures
Absolutely. But what can be more annoying to have a graph at a corner of a big page, and have to adjust the bondingbox manully? Instead of eps2eps, ps2eps will probably do a better job.

Re: Annotating eps figures
Thanks guys. I ended up importing the figure into xfig, annotating and exporting as ps/latex. Worked beautifully. Thanks for all the suggestions. Angus

Annotating eps figures
I have a bunch of eps graphs that I'd like to annotate with LaTeX (axis labels, stuff like that). Can anyone give me some pointers to the best way to go about this? Regards, Angus

If your graphs are of the mathematical kind, then check out the pstricks package and pst-plot. A description is given in Herbert's tips and tricks http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/psTricks/pst-plotDemo.phtml If you don't want to draw them again or can't then look here for how to overlay text onto a graphic. http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/psTricks/pstricks.phtml Regards Rob
