[Paraview] Paraview output in a latex document

[burlen]

Any specific reason you prefer eps files? PV is only going to give you 
raster images, so eps isn't an advantage as far as I can tell.

I think you can get quite good results with png's. Save your PV image in 
.png format (File-Save Screen Shot), in as high resolution as you can. 
In other words, make the PV window large. You have to have 
\usepackage{graphicx} or \usepackage[pdftex]{color,graphicx} or 
something similar at the start of your LaTeX file. Use width option of 
the \includegrahics command to get the image the right size in your 
document. I use Kile 2.0 editor and it inserts all the bounding box and 
other info correctly, which is very nice feature.
