[Bug 343812] New: Kile 2.0 should not use dvipdfmx for DVItoPDF
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=343812 Summary: Kile 2.0 should not use dvipdfmx for DVItoPDF Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: christiandehne@web.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I have updated to Kile 2.0 from the BuildService (KDE:Backports). Doing DVItoPDF results in an pdf, where all pictures are missing. My pictures are in eps. I have found out that Kile 2.0 uses dvipdfmx to convert dvi to pdf, whereas dvipdfm was used before. This still works correct. I do not know if this is an error in dvipdfmx or only a bad choice of Kile to use this now as standard. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Before doing so I'd like to know if the option dvipdfmx for the graphics style was enabled. Beside this IMHO it would be better to use pdflatex to skip the step of having a dvi files around for a resulting pdf file. Remark: the extended verwion of dvipdfm, called dvipdfmx has more features. This increases the risk of having more bug. Nevertheless I've nver heared about a problem with graphics and dvipdfmx therefore I guess a simple usage error here. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

IMHO you should report this upstream. Before doing so I'd like to know if the option dvipdfmx for the graphics style was enabled.
For me it does not make a change if use \usepackage{graphicx} or \usepackage[dvipdfmx]{graphicx} In bose cases dvipdfm works, but dvipdfmx not. I have also tried both commands from console. Here is the result for dvipdfmx: dvipdfmx test.dvi test.dvi -> test.pdf [1 ** WARNING ** No image converter available for converting file "./induktion.eps" to PDF format. ** WARNING ** >> Please check if you have 'D' option in config file. ** WARNING ** pdf: image inclusion failed for "induktion.eps". ** WARNING ** Failed to read image file: induktion.eps ** WARNING ** Interpreting special command PSfile (ps:) failed. ** WARNING ** >> at page="1" position="(133.768, 340.189)" (in PDF) ** WARNING ** >> xxx "PSfile="induktion.eps" llx=0 lly=0 urx=322 ury=198 rwi=3220 " ] 15934 bytes written

I usually do this, so I found this more or less by accident. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
