I am writing a report using the Macintosh program OzTeX. Somewhere in the file, I have to include a PICT file. I read the documentation that comes with the DVIM72-Mac. It mentions it can print such dvi file. All I have to do is to type \special{pict pathname} where pict pathname is the absolute pathname or just the file name if it is in the same folder which contains the dvi file, and to leave some space for the picture. I do something like this: \vbox to 4in{\vfil\hbox to \textwidth{\hfil\special{graph.pict}\hfil}\vfil} Is the above correct way to leave room for a picture? (I maybe wrong because I am not very familiar with \hbox and \vbox.) DVIM72-Mac does not include the PICT file to print. I also adjust the size of the \vbox to \textheight and the result is still the same. Can someone help me? Thanks. Jesse
