dear zdenek,

thank you very much for your reply!

did you mean i could solve the problem by writing

e.g.

%!PS
\begin{figure}[H]

...

\end{figure}
%%EOF

?

this didn't work and i don't understand how something is making a change
even though i put a % in front of it.

thank you very much in advance.
