Re: [MiKTeX] dvi error

[Jean-Claude D. P. <jc...@un...>]

Older versions have the advantage that
you can use any figure with them (emf, bmp, wmf, png, eps etc),
while you can only use eps with the newer version.
If, like me, you have a huge library of figures in
another format than eps, and older version is definitely
the way to go.
As for the pdf: you can download PDF995 from the Web and
use it to print your dvi to pdf.
