Hi,
I've got a quick LaTex question. Is there a way to make LaTex _not_

breaks after each line.

that the text be only left-justified. If

You might try a LaTeX package called subfigure. It can be downloaded from the

website at ftp://ftp.duke.edu/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/catalogue.html. I

how well it works as I just came across it a few days ago and haven't had a

Hi,
There is no latex errors. The file.tex compiled fine.
When I view it using gv, it still displays as portrait.
If I use gv -landscape, it changes the page size and then
rotates my document 90 degrees...
If I lpr -Pprinter file.ps, it comes out in portrait
