Forget these commands immediately! ;-) Both your ways to include graphics are obsoleted long ago by the rise of the graphic[s|x] package. > I've heared of a latex package which can load a lot of common picture > formats. But I don't know its name. Sorry. graphicx.sty: but note that, dependend on the dvi previewer/processor you use, it will support the formats *this* backend understands, not more. LaTeX (or rather TeX) doesn´t know about graphics, Knuth only provided the hook for backends. > There is a disavantage in doing so.

Norris Preyer shows the perfect, correct example and points to the canonical epslatex document; I´m just writing this to make things clear for newbies. (From where do they know all this evil stuff...?) :-) Cheers, Colin PS: I seldom use latex, at least less often than *LaTeX*. :-) -- Colin Marquardt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
