| Summary | 0000453: importing .eps within mpost? | ||||
| Description | From: Don Knuth Dear Karl, I'm not sure how to best direct a query to the maintainers of METAPOST, so again I'm bothering you. Please forward the following message (which is not at all urgent): Dear METAPOSTers, Are there plans to provide an "easy" way to import *.eps files within a METAPOST figure? (It would require not only inserting the file, as dvips does, but also scanning it for bounding-box information. If necessary one could limit the recursion so that e.g. the *.eps file shouldn't already be an output of METAPOST...) I'm thinking mainly of things like standard Photoshop EPS files that contain pixel data for images. Maybe there already is such a facility, and I've missed it? -- Don Knuth | ||||

i will pass along the other replies (exteps package, hans recipes) to dek and report back whether a built-in feature is needed. (seems like overkill, personally.) |

Maybe Pstoedit can help ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pstoedit |

since dek hasn't replied further, i think we can safely assume he's ok and close this without changing the sources. if that changes, can always reopen. tx. |
