(p [
Images are unfortunately ,(emph "unportable"). The various Skribe output
formats support different image formats. For instance, HTML supports
,(code "gif") and ,(code "jpeg") while the LaTeX back-end only supports
,(code "ps"). Skribe tries, only when needed, to automatically
,(emph "convert") images to a format supported by the target
to be produced. For this, it uses external tools. The default Skribe
translation scheme is:])
(itemize (item [Do not translate an image that needs no conversion.])
(item [Uses the ,(code "fig2dev") external tool to translate
,(code "Xfig") images.])
(item [Uses the ,(code "convert") external tools to translate all
other formats.]))
(p [,(ref :chapter "Engines" :text "Engines") support different image
formats. Each engine may specify a converter to be applied to an image.
The engine custom ,(code "image-format") specifies the list of supported
image formats. This list is composed of a suffix such as ,(code "jpeg") or
,(code "gif").])
(p [The function ,(code "convert-image") tries to convert an
image according to a list of formats. All the specified formats are
successively tried. On the first success, the function ,(code "convert-image")
returns the name of the new converted image. On failure, it returns
,(code "#f").])
