Conversion from png to eps though not necessary #31

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
1. When making a pdf file from a tex
2. folder containing graphics files contain the same graphics in both png
and eps formats.

Instead of simply using the existing eps files, the makefile starts by
converting png files to eps though eps version of the png graphic files
exist already and in the process overwrite these eps files.

I am using latex-makefile 2.1.25 and GNU Make 3.81 on a linux 
2.6.24.7-desktop-2mnb (mandriva 2008 spring).

Please provide any additional information below.

This is working as intended.  The makefile always overwrites images if there is
source that can generate them.  It always has.

I'm open to ideas about how to make this safer, though.

As I thought about this a bit more, I realized a few things:

1) If the makefile originally created those images, it won't recreate them, 
because
they'll already be up-to-date
2) This does represent a rather large change in the way the makefile behaves, 
so I'm
sorry about that.  I am soliciting feedback on how to make this safer, or how 
to help
with your particular case.
