Revision has been done satisfactorily in accordance with reviewers' comments and it is acceptable as is.

Such a pretty sentence :pets it:

Now have to submit final files, transfer of copyright form, work out what's being done with the financial form (Australian universities do not provide money for publication charges, so I think Neil has to write his "We're destitute" note).
Don't know how long before it's published, I'm guessing two-three months.

can you open the file in Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop to add the text? Then you can just export the file again to an .eps file.

Or, are you familiar with Tex/LaTeX enough to take your image, input it into a tex script to crop just the image, add the figure # text to the bottom and then make THAT into a postscript file?

I've got ready made scripts at work (probably on my desktop computer here at home too) that I can send you that should theoretically work... as it's GRL, don't they want a TeX/LaTeX file to be submitted?

I have got photoshop, but haven't used it to deal with eps files. It will save to the same resolution as it is now (not sure what it is exactly :\)?
I'm relatively good with LaTeX and was thinking about doing that. But can you resave it as .eps? The figures must be in that format. And yes, the article itself is a LaTeX file.

sure, you should be able to... I believe the line command dvips (I may be wrong about that) can be used to create an .eps. Photoshop should also be able to save the file into the same resolution; so long as when the .eps file is imported into Adobe that you import it in the correct resolution (default is usually 72 dpi, so make sure you change it to .. what? 300 dpi?)

The nice thing with using latex to do it is that you're still guranteed the correct resolution. it takes some tinkering around but it does tend to work. That's how I did my thesis; I made separate files of all the figures and added the correct page number via latex and tacked everything into one huge PDF file using Distiller. Granted, I was making .ps files and not .eps files. I'll do a quick search on the internet (I need to download MiKTeX to my laptop anyway) and see what I come up with.

Yeah, I'd always created .ps files from LaTeX.
After a lot of searching, I may have found a way:
dvips -E figure.dvi -o figure.eps

Will cross my fingers and try it out.
