[xep-support] graphic file formats

Have you tried converting to tif images? They give us much higher resolution
and quality than jpgs. We use photoshop to do the conversions.

  Yes, initially, but then I added -page to "convert".  I think I figured it
out, at least for this problem.  I was "convert"ing to an image that was too
small.  I increased the page parameters, and I now get the image, but  it is
unacceptable. So, contrary to what I said before, the pstill product is
working better than "convert" as it uses fonts.

  I guess at this point I would like a recommendation.  My ultimate goal is
HTML and PDF output from DocBook.  I really like how XEP does the FO
rendering but I need better printed graphics.  I have MS Visio and the JPEG
from it is fine for HTML. However, I am open to something else if it will do
as good a job for HTML and a better job for printing.

  TIA

   Are you creating a postscript file that is a full page with the
image aligned at the bottom left hand corner?
