I just upgraded from Ver. 4.1 to 5.0 to get the automatic embedding of Mathematica fonts into graphics exported as .eps files. Worked well on my first tests. Solves a big headache with my first try at the production of a book via latex. Nice addition.
especiial if you are using LaTeX you should *not* use the font embedding. Because every font will make your EPS file larger by ca 70 kByte, say you have 100 figures in your book and two fonts per figure, you wil get a file that is 14000 kByte larger.
Adding wolfram.map to config.ps of dvips will automatical include the fonts found in the EPS figures and include the fonts only once and not 100 times.

Wouldn't it be nice if WRI said *something* about what major bugs/"inconveniences" have been fixed when a new version is released?? (Instead of only hyping the earth-shattering new features.)

Jens, I see your point, but could you elaborate on this? I am using the PCTex distribution of LaTeX. There is indeed a config.ps file but I have no idea how to edit this in the manner you have suggested, nor does the distribution provide any guidance on this.
