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.
23
24
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}
