I'm trying to convert a dvi to pdf with /usr/bin/dvipdf (a script that uses /usr/bin/dvips. I've tried app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r6 (which includes dvips v5.95b) and app-text/texlive-2007-r3 (which includes dvips v5.96b) but the included eps images in my .dvi file are neither rotated nor scaled (I'm using \includegraphics[angle=-90,width=10cm]). (dvips output attached) When I open the .dvi file with kdvi-3.5.9 there aren't scaled or rotated, too. On Suse 10.2 (with dvips v5.96) it works. Has anybody any ideas? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create dvi file with /usr/bin/latex 2. run dvipdf Actual Results: Images are shown in their "real" size and orientation. Expected Results: Images should be scaled and rotated.

ahh, as a workaround you can use \package{graphicx} instead of \package[dvipdf]{graphicx}. From my point of view there _should_ be no reason that you must not use \package[dvipdf]{graphicx}
small question: did you try to compile your latex file under opensuse and run the dvipdf command on gentoo and vice versa ? here dvipdf.def uses pdf specials for rotating/scaling, and dvipdf (which is provided by ghostscript here btw) calls dvips, which doesn't understand the pdf specials (which I'd say is normal). Did you try also dvipdfm ? (with the dvipdfm option of course)
(In reply to comment #6) > here dvipdf.def uses pdf specials for rotating/scaling, and dvipdf (which is > provided by ghostscript here btw) calls dvips, which doesn't understand the pdf > specials (which I'd say is normal). closing this as invalid for that reason, please reopen with explanations if you think i'm wrong
