Hi
I am new to the list, and I have a problem including jpeg and tiff files =
in the final postscript output. I am running a newly installed version =
of Redhat 8 and dvips(k) 5.86 and jpeg2ps 1.9. The latex file is as =
follows:

\documentclass[12pt]{report}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\DeclareGraphicsRule{.jpg}{eps}{.jpg.bb}{`jpeg2ps -r0 #1}
\begin{figure}=20
\centering
\includegraphics[width=3D\textwidth]{pics/test.jpg}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

It compiles fine and I can issue the command jpeg2ps -r0 pics/test.jpg =
and it works fine. However dvips gives me the message:
dvips: failure to execute jpeg2ps -r0 pics/test.jpg; continuing. The =
result is also the same if I try tiff2ps. It is as if dvips does not =
know jpeg2ps is there. I put jpeg2ps in /usr/bin. Should it go in =
another directory so that dvips can find it? I have seen a similar =
problem in the archives but I could not find the solution if any that =
was posted.

Your help is greatly appreciated
Andrew
