[pdftex] pdftex and metapost and png files

[Geoff Russell]

Hi,

I have a graphic format compatibility problem.

I want to include a png image in a metapost picture and
am trying to use

	verbatimtex
     \input graphicx
     etex

     ...
	beginfig(1);
     label(btex \includegraphics{xxx.png} etex,z0);
	endfig;
	end


When I run metapost with TEX=tex then \pdfimage isn't defined, and if
I run it with TEX=pdftex then it is producing pdf and metapost can't
read it. If I change pdftex.cfg to ask for dvi, then the png isn't
recognised.

Is there a way around this? I'd prefer pdftex if possible.

Cheers,
Geoff Russell
