-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label dvipsgraphics</title>
-</head><body>
-<h3>Imported graphics in <i>dvips</i></h3>
-<p/><i>Dvips</i>, as originally conceived, can only import a single
-graphics format:
-<a href="FAQ-eps.html">encapsulated PostScript</a> (<code>.eps</code> files).
-<i>Dvips</i> also deals with the slightly eccentric EPS that is
-created by <a href="FAQ-MP.html">MetaPost</a>.
-<p/>Apart from the fact that a depressing proportion of drawing
-applications produce corrupt EPS when asked for such output,
-this is pretty satisfactory for vector graphics work.
-<p/>To include bitmap graphics, you need some means of converting them to
-PostScript; in fact many standard image manipulators (such as
-<i>ImageMagick</i>&rsquo;s <i>convert</i>) make a good job of
-creating EPS files (but be sure to ask for output at PostScript
-level 2 or higher). (<i>Unix</i> users should beware of
-<i>xv</i>&rsquo;s claims: it has a tendency to downsample your bitmap to
-your screen resolution.)
-<p/>Special purpose applications <i>jpeg2ps</i> (which converts
-JPEG files using PostScript level 2 functionality),
-<i>bmeps</i> (which converts both JPEG and PNG
-files) and <i>a2ping</i>/<i>sam2p</i> (which convert a
-bewildering array of bitmap formats to EPS or PDF files;
-<i>sam2p</i> is one of the engines that <i>a2ping</i> uses)
-are also considered &ldquo;good bets&rdquo;.
-<p/><i>Bmeps</i> comes with patches to produce your own version of
-<i>dvips</i> that can cope with JPEG and PNG direct,
-using <i>bmeps</i>&rsquo;s conversion library. <i>Dvips</i>, as
-distributed by MiKTeX, comes with those patches built-in, but
-assuming that capability destroys portability, and is only
-recommendable if you are sure you will never want to share your
-document.
