JPEG

Sometimes, one would like to include JPEG files. For example, some generated .eps files are way too large for submission to preprint archives. To include these, first make a jpeg using xv, the Gimp, or some other program, then use the jpeg2ps program to convert this compressed JPEG image back to a .eps file. This may the be included in LATEX as usual.

One can also do this with PNG files if you use the img2ps program.
