I'm trying to create a graph like the one shown at
http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/mg262/radius2.pdf . That's generated from
http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/mg262/radius2.tex using dot2texi (under
MiKTeX on WinXP). However, when I try to make the graph any larger, as
in http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/mg262/rewritegraph.tex, the tex file won't
compile. (No error message; pdflatex just freezes up.)
dot2texi created a file called rewritegraph-dot2tex-fig1.dot which
seemed to contain just hte graph; I opened it up and added '$'s to the
labels to create http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/mg262/test.dot . 'dot2tex
test.dot --autosize' works, but running pdflatex on the resultant file
(http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/mg262/test.tex) creates an error:
! Dimension too large.

l.28 \draw [->] (36290bp,71.966bp)
.. controls (36252bp,61.909bp) and
(362...
?
Googling suggests that it's very hard to get TeX to deal with dimensions
this large. But I feel like there must be some workaround to make
dot2texi Graphviz scale down all the numbers, including the font
sizes... I'd be very grateful for any advice.
