[texhax] Using *.eps files with Latex

[Christopher Kuhlman]

Hello:

I am using Windows, with MiKTex 2.6 and TeXnic Center 7.1 beta.  Been using it for years, no problem.

Always used *.png figure files with Latex.  Now I need to use encapsulated postscript.

I use the exact same figure formats (e.g., \usepackage{graphicx}, \usepackage{subfigure}) as with *.png files.

However, I get fatal error on these figures, as follows:
!  LaTex Error:  Unknonw graphics extension:  .eps.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.

Can someone please explain a solution?

Thanks much.
