FIG2PS2TEX(1)

NAME
       fig2ps2tex   -   generate  a  TeX  file  for  including  a
       PostScript file

SYNOPSIS
       fig2ps2tex file

DESCRIPTION
       Fig2ps2tex generates a TeX file for including a PostScript
       file  in  a  TeX  document.  This involves calculating the
       bounding box from the Postscript document.  The TeX inclu-
       sion file is written to stdout.

       There  is also Fig2ps2tex.sh for those systems without csh
       and/or dc (Linux for example).

       Note that the psfig macro package provides a more  sophis-
       ticated  approach  to  including Postscript files in LaTeX
       docuements.  Fig2ps2tex works with plain TeX however.

USAGE
       Assume the Postscript file is called foo.ps .  The command
                      % fig2ps2tex foo.ps >foo.tex

       will  create the inclusion file with bounding information.
       Then include this file in your TeX document with the  com-
       mand
                              \input{foo}
