<font size=3>Dear Thomas,<br>
Many thanks for your quick response!<br>
Apparently, I have the version numbers 1 Beta 6.31 ('Firenze')<br>
and MiKTeX 2.4.<br><br>
You have 2.5 in your example, so I guess these are not the newest (the
<a href="http://www.tug.org/protext/" eudora="autourl">
www.tug.org/protext/</a> page from which I downloaded is not explicit
about the version numbers, it has protext.exe and protext-2.0.exe, both
with a 2007 date -- I took the protext.exe).<br><br>
Contrary to what you indicate in your message below, LATEX => PS
=> PDF handles *both* eps and jpg! <br>
This is what I need most of the time, so I shall stick to it.<br><br>
Sincerely,<br>
Peter J. Huber<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Two questions:<br>
(1) I recently had to re-install ProTeXt (because LaTeX => PS =>
PDF no longer worked, registry problem?). How do I find out which
software versions of MiKTeX and TeXnic Center I am actually
using?</blockquote><br>
Inside TeXnicCenter, open the ?(Help)-Menue and choose the entry 'Info
about TeXnicCenter'. You'll find the version number at the top of the
displayed window.<br><br>
MiKTeX prints out it version number in the first line of its log-output.
You should see a line like<br><br>
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.6-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.5)<br><br>
While 'Version' describes the state of the used TeX-Version, the number
insides the paranthesises shows the used MiKTeX-Version.<br><br>
<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">(2) Is there any easy way (as in
Word) to include different graphics (eps, jpg, tiff, bmp) in a single
document?</blockquote><br>
As Karl has mentionend in hist Mail, this depends on the output-direction
you've chosen before. If you followed the line<br><br>
LaTeX -> DVI [-> PS [-> PDF]]<br><br>
eps is the only graphics format, that will be accepted. Therefore it
might be better to use PDFLaTeX directly<br><br>
PDFLaTeX -> PDF<br><br>
which accepts graphics in pdf, jpg and png-format (unfortunately no eps
and/or tif).<br><br>
