Re: Another newbie

Tobias,

Thanks for the pointer, and the suggestion on #2.  It looks like it should
work - silly me was putting the fill inside the minipage :-)

But I don't understand this one.  These are vector images now, not
bitmaps.  They're ink on paper, so there is no background color - or
rather, the "background color" would be whatever the color was of the
paper in the printer, if I was actually printing hard copies.  What I need
is something that would clear the box that the includegraphics command
makes for the image, then put the graphic on top of it.

Thanks,
James
