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 inclusion file is written to stdout.

       There is also Fig2ps2tex.csh for those systems with csh and dc.

       Note that the psfig macro package provides a more sophisticated approach to including Postscript files in
       LaTeX documents.  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 command

              \input{foo}

SEE ALSO

       psfig(1), latex(1), fig2dev(1), transfig(1).
