I am looking for a PC based program that will let me use standard PCX graphics in LaTeX documents (printing to a LaerJet IIP finally via dvi2lj). Does anyone have or know of such a program ? I have already looked in both the ynir.claremont.edu and soe.sun.clarkson.edu archives, and the uk.ac.tex archive on JANET with no success.

Use the emTeX drivers. These support the use of PCX and MSP graphics. Since you are in the UK, try the aston tex archive. Note that the MS-DOS version of Tomas Rokicki's dvips supports some emTeX specials, but does not support the \special{em:graph xxx} used by the emTeX drivers for including PCX and MSP graphics. If you want include PCX or MSP graphics with dvips, use Windows Paintbrush to print it as epsf to a file. Then use the epsf.tex macros for including the epsf file. -- Russell Lang Email: rjl@monu1.cc.monash.edu.au Phone: (03) 565 3460 Department of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering Monash University, Australia

It is able to convert from/to PS, PCX, BMP, TIFF, GIF and many more. PS-files can be included in LaTeX. Hope this helps- Andreas
