Hi again, 

Sorry for so many bursts in the list, I think this is the last question
I'm dropping here for now. 
This is not an issue to solve, but a doubt I had in mind since several
weeks ago. 

Images are usual, a great many in my texts, since they are necessary
needed by the text. They are sketch, diagrams, graphics, draws, etc...
made with The Gimp most of the times, also some formed images caught
over there or even scanned, whatever...

First, I saved everything in the .png format, and after resizing, etc...
properly with The Gimp and the image was really ready, just went to Lyx
> Insert image. 

Then, I don't know if I read something here or wherever..., about saving
in .eps format. I thought it would make sense (because of postscript,
TeX, etc...), so I tried (with The Gimp too), was OK and then all images
were converted to .eps, but going to LyX > Insert Image (as before). 

This way needs the permanent existence of a folder with the set of
images for each document, right. 
On the other hand, I read in the CTAN, documentation, ... that there is
a package to INCLUDE the own image (eps) inside the document, that is,
as a built-in of the document. Am I right?

If the above is right, my question: What's the difference? Is there a
difference in terms of quality, an advantage, ...or just is a question
about "comfort"?

Regards,

Daniel
