We use scribus, the desktop publishing program for linux. You can get it here: http://www.scribus.org.uk/ What we do when faced with the situation you are describing is import the png file as a graphic into scribus and then publish the scribus document as a pdf. The output is simply marvelous. The other option is to use the image magick convert command to massage the png into a postscript file and then use ps2pdf to convert it into a pdf. This option will give acceptable results, but nothing near as nice as the scribus thing I previously described. Regards Marvin
