Thanks, Dekel.
You are right. That is exactly the case, the placement of the master dok.
I came to the same conclusion just a while befor your message after I
exercised many configuration variants, as Herberts suggestions did not
work on my computer. And obviously there is no need to work with .ps.gz
or .ps.bb files, as my files are rendered and converted by Gimp to .eps
level 2 Postripts and .png (for pdf export). This way there is no need to
use eps2.
Nevertheless, I am not happy with this find-out concerning master
dokument. I do my best to keep document's directory tree logicaly clear
and transparent. Say, I am writing a book with three Parts, every part
has many chapters, in this case the master dokument, as I would prefer,
should be placed in directory parent for three other containing chapter
files of each Part. But now I have to put the whole chapter files stuff
and master to one directory. This makes a devil's mess. Well, if there is
no other way...
Thank you both, Herbert and Dekel for your help, thank you endeed.
