@jasmine Hey. I don't know how to do this, specifically, but you can check the subfigure package help (which is very well done). (http://www.fi.infn.it/pub/tex/doc/orig/subfigure.pdf)

Do you know of any way to change the labeling of the subfigures when using the subfigure package? (i.e. instead of (a), (b), etc write A, B,… or some other label?)

Thanks!

@william If your figures are vectorized, then you shouldn't need to worry about resolution at all. HOWEVER, if your figures are bitmaps, then resolution is VERY important, and you should shoot for 600dpi for a print article. The steps I give in the post should give you eps files at the same resolution that they were in the pdf file. If you're having trouble with convert, try using another program such as Photoshop to convert the filetype. Finally, if the problem is in the pdf2eps-pdfcrop part, you can try changing the line: $::opt_resolution = ""; to $::opt_resolution = "600"; in pdfcrop.pl. This seemed to have no effect for me because my images came out high-res to begin with, but it might fix your problem! Let us know if that works.

Very nice tips there. I actually tried them, and works pretty well. But is there a way to increase the resolution of the eps files?
The graphic eps files are now generated with 72 dpi, while the guideline said we need 600dpi for printing. Is it ok to use just 72 dpi?

Thanks for your suggestions and helps.
