Re: [Texmacs-dev] [TeXmacs] New experimental Pdf export facility

[David E. Miller]

Some time in the past, I wrote an article (using Texmacs of course) related to image inclusion issues and Texmacs.

I have attached this article (PDF) for your reference related to the subject of this email and those similar which have preceded this message.

However, I make a couple of disclaimers. First, I am not an expert on image formats and conversions. I am a user that was discovering through trial and error what seemed to work well and what did not with respect to image inclusion in the context of Texmacs. Second, I am not sure how much of the information of this article is relevant to this issue at hand, but on the chance that someone may find something useful, I decided to take a chance and send it out. If it turns out that it is not all that relevant or is outdated, please accept my apologies.

For EPS, ImageMagick save an uncompressed bitmap.

jpeg2ps (http://www.pdflib.com/download/free-software/jpeg2ps/) puts jpeg into eps in compressed form, without decompressing. It produces much shorter eps files than ImageMagick. I always use it, not ImageMagick, for this sort of convertion.

Unfortunately, it is not quite free: only free for non-commercial use (with sources).

Maybe, TeXmacs could use it optionally, when it is available on the computer?
