Re: images in Docbook with Red Hat 6.2

Hi, Eric:

    Sorry for my ignorance, but I am new to docbook ;-)

    What you use (&gif-eps;) is standard? I mean, can I use directly? Or
does it depend on some "macro" defined before? Sorry again, but I don't
know how to define "macros" in SGML :-( .

    Thanks in advance.
    diego.
