Can't create readable pdf from latex. Images come out bad
I am writing documents and several (but not all) of the eps images I am importing have problems when I try to read them with acroread. I get either the error "A drawing error has occurred" if I am scrolling or "Insufficient data for image" if I jump to the page. I can see the images perfectly well in either ps or dvi format, however even if I use xpdf I get errors on the images. I have used pdflatex, latex dvipdf, and latex dvips ps2pdf. I get errors using xpdf as well. Also the windows version of Adobe reader gives me the same errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need to write pdf documents for job applications.
The problem is that these files are already writen including a 140 page document. I just hadn't need to use pdf format before. (I used ps before). Also I use latex so that I can write papers with particular styles, and references (I use bibtex and hyperlinks). So it is best that I use latex rather than lyx.
