I haven't had this problem before (though I've seen similar problems). Could you send me (uuencoded) the .fig and .eps file, so that I can try and reproduce your problem? > 2) at other times I try to expert the picture containing > jpg images into a postscript file.

Well, xfig uses ghostscript for postscript files, but if you just include jpg's then ghostscript isn't used. > Does anyone have an idea what is happening and how to fix it ? > I really appreciate your help. No, I don't have any idea. But I would like to reproduce your problems here (could you sent me the .jpg too, with an .fig that loads it and generates errors? Just one uuencoded .tar.gz file would be great).
