Wow! Has the SGMLTools project been resurrected? I have been using the sgmltools-CVS19980807-2.i386.rpm from Kayvan Sylvan's site. A search on freshmeat for SGMLtools revealed that there is at sourceforge a new version in RPM format with pithy little filename: sgmltools-lite-3.01cvs2625-4.i386

Hello, When I work directly in LaTeX and want include images and obtain both ps and pdf files, I simply use this : {\includegraphics{image} where "image" is the radical of the filename, without extension. In the current directory, I have both "image.eps" and "image.png". So, I can use latex or

how to insert picture before title?

I am using LyX 1.1.5 and want to insert a picture (company logo) before the title of a document (or better yet, in the top-right margin of the first page). "Insert Figure" before the title puts the image on a page by itself, however. Does anyone have any tips on how to do what I want? Thanks!

Hi James, you could use ImageMagick to convert your image file in any format to any other format including eps. That means that you can run your favourite package for generating your image files, save it a format for which the package doesn't crash and convert it to eps with ImageMagick. If y
