[texhax] Latex help,

[John C Frain]

Using | File | Save as | eps | used to work well in Matlab in Windows.
 Exporting Excel files as eps (?) may lead to problems.  If I had to I
would install a postscript printer and generate a postscript file by
printing to file using the postscript driver.  I would the use
ghostsctipt (GSview) to convert postscript to eps.

Best Regards

John
