Err...This depends on what you're using to make the PDF files. Cygnus creates
|
|
TeX, then PS, then PDF. TeX doesn't like JPEG all that much, so you have to
|
|
use .eps (at least, this is what most of an afternoon has taught me). Jade
|
|
also uses TeX to create PS.
|
|
|
|
The LDP uses another tool (html2ps?) to generate the PDF, skipping the TeX
|
|
part altogether.
|
|
|
|
If the LDP (hey powers-that-be) wants to support TeX as an output format,
|
|
then you'll need to provide both .eps and .jpg files. At least this was
|
|
the answer to my question on graphics formats.
|
|
|
|
If we don't want to support TeX, then I'll go ahead and document the alternate
|
|
PDF tool and advise authors to not use jade or db2pdf to create PDF files.
|
|
|
|
Maybe I'll document the html2ps anyway....
