@DavidCarlisle yes thats true, editing eps turns out to be easier than editing a pdf hmm . Usually I have figures to edit. I wonder if I can get hold of each object in a pdf through some software?

@Werner As of now, tex.stackexchange.com/a/174123 no longer compiles. Since it was your answer, could I kindly ask you to look into this? Thanks in advance!

I thought I read that LuaTeX better manages the vexing issue of line numbering. But perhaps I was mistaken, because I cannot find a reference to this anywhere.

Hello all, a quick question about using includegraphics in linux: I have some image files that use the ending ".EPS" but TeX claims this graphics format to be unknown (.eps with small letters works). Is there a way to tell LaTeX that .EPS is the same as .eps?
@Lupino yes are you using pdftex or latex/dvips or ...
@Lupino basically \DeclareGraphicsRule{.EPS}{eps}{.EPS}{} should work
@DavidCarlisle thanks, that worked.

^^^ Would be nice to have this on all sites.
@samcarter Certainly the Powers should ask generally if people want to opt-in
@JosephWright yes, but having the option to switch this off would be nice
@samcarter Raise on the network-wide meta?

@JosephWright unsurprisingly the question already exists meta.stackexchange.com/q/11586/237989 :)
@samcarter I think a newer question ... might be appropriate!
@JosephWright With which justification? I don't see the company having any advantage from it and for users, the old question does have a working user script to hide rep.
@samcarter Ah, fair enough: reading in more detail I see that MathOverflow has a unique situation, so this is not a network-wide feature people could ask to be turned on for their site

@JosephWright I'd done the same but decided not to confuse the answer with interactive * prompts:-)
