I’m trying to include some graphics generated by Mathematica, something I am not used to doing (I usually generate what I need via pspicture).
<div class="">Using the TeXShop editor’s menu, I selected Figurs>epsfile and got the template which I filled in as follows:</div>
<div class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;" class="">
\begin{figure}[htbp]</div>

\begin{center}</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;" class="">
\epsfile{file=plot1.pdf,scale=0.8}</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;" class="">
\caption{{\bf Weierstrass's Function}}</div>
