SYNOPSIS

10       fig2ps2tex file
11
12

DESCRIPTION

14       Fig2ps2tex  generates  a  TeX file for including a PostScript file in a
15       TeX document.  This involves calculating  the  bounding  box  from  the
16       Postscript document.  The TeX inclusion file is written to stdout.
17
18       There is also Fig2ps2tex.csh for those systems with csh and dc.
19
20       Note  that  the  psfig  macro  package  provides  a  more sophisticated
21       approach to including Postscript files in LaTeX docuements.  Fig2ps2tex
22       works with plain TeX however.

USAGE

26       Assume the Postscript file is called foo.ps .  The command
27
28              % fig2ps2tex foo.ps >foo.tex
29
30       will create the inclusion file with bounding information.  Then include
31       this file in your TeX document with the command
32
33              \input{foo}
