[texworks] Changing JPGs to EPSs

[Charles Nix]

I'm initially thinking that using any TeX/LaTeX package to do that is a 
long detour.  Convert the file using a Mac image software, maybe 
Preview? (I'm not a Mac user.)

I'm also curious why you would _want_ to.  A jpg converted to a vector 
format like eps will be huge, and lose quality.  Can't you use the image 
directly, compiling with pdflatex?  You would use the graphicx package 
to do most things with images.

(It appears you may also misunderstand the modular component nature of 
most unix-like software. Texworks is only the text file editor/previewer 
for the .tex files you are writing.   Any commands you are looking for 
are written in TeX/LaTeX, and would be the same if you used Vi or emacs 
or nano or wordpad or textedit or whatever. MikTeX is a TeX/LaTeX 
distribution which includes Texworks as one of its components.)
