Re: [OT] latex, pdflatex and graphics formats



Hi Stefan

I really like the makefile approach, but I will have to read the "make"-nutshell book before I understand what the snipped you gave me really does...
Thanks anyway.

I would use a Makefile like
-----------------[snip!]-----------------------
FROM = $(subst .eps,.pdf, $(wildcard *.eps))

all:: $(FROM)

%.pdf: %.eps	
	epstopdf $< > $@
-----------------[snip!]-----------------------

to convert only the eps files that changed to pdf. You can also use a
makefile for running LaTeX on you .tex documents ... experiment!
