Re: [Gretl-devel] png save issue
Thanks very much for the responses.
Jack's suggestion, along the lines of Sven's comment, actually works.
There was a problem though. The graps created from pdfs would look
blurred. I spent quite some time trying different sizes and fine
tuning etc. but could not get the graps to always look sharp no matter
what the zoom level is. This was possible before when I used eps files
and LaTeX, instead of pdfLaTeX. Anyway, suddenly I realized no
blurring occurs on Acrobat Reader on Windows. I installed acrobat
reader on Linux and again there is no blurring. So the problem was due
to the Ocular program in KDE 4.
Also, using \usepackage{epstopdf} does not work for me. I get
Package graphics Error: File `graph.pdf' not found. See the graphics
package documentation for explanation.
Cheers

In current TeX Live installations (certainly in 2010 and possibly even in 2009)
conversion of a .eps file into a .pdf file can be done automatically by using package
epstopdf (put \usepackage{epstopdf} in the preamble).
There is also a standalone script epstopdf.
