For photographs and other images that are inherently made of pixels (that is, rasters or bitmaps), LaTeX can (usually) handle the .jpg and .png formats as well as .eps and .pdf. Figure \ref{sunsets} is a .jpg example. For final production, however, AJP prefers that raster images be in .tiff format. Most LaTeX systems can’t import .tiff images, so we recommend using .png or .jpg with LaTeX for your initial submission, while saving a higher-quality .tiff version to submit as a separate file after your manuscript is conditionally accepted for publication.

Please refer to the AJP editor’s web site\cite{editorsite} for more details on AJP’s requirements for figure preparation.
