[OS X TeX] help with xelatex

[Dennis Kletzing]

Many thanks to all the replies. Herb hit it. Originally I was using  
tex+dvi with .eps graphics files. Worked fined. When I switched to  
xelatex I continued with this and it didn't work. I discovered that  
when I convert the .eps files to .pdf files and bring them with  
\includegraphics{file.pdf}, everything works fine. Thanks again.
