- NAME
- transfig - creates a makefile for portable LaTeX figures
-
- SYNOPSIS
- transfig [ -L language ] [ -M makefile ] [ -T texfile ] [
- control_specs figfile ... ] ...]
-
- DESCRIPTION
- Transfig creates a makefile to translate figures described
- in Fig code, PostScript, or PIC into a specified LaTeX
- graphics language. PostScript and PIC files are identified
- by the suffixes ".ps" and ".pic" respectively; Fig files can
- be specified either with or without the suffix ".fig" .
- Transfig also creates a TeX macro file appropriate to the
- target language.
-
- OPTIONS
- The language specifier must be either epic, eepic, eepicemu,
- latex, pictex, ps, psfig, tpic, or null. The specifier
- psfig is like the ps specifier, except that it make use of
- the psfig macro package. The specifier null results in the
- figures being replaced by empty boxes of the appropriate
- size. If no language is specified, epic is the default.
-
- The names of the makefile and TeX macro file can be set with
- the -M and -T options. The default names are "Makefile" and
- "transfig.tex", respectively.
-
- Control specifiers are
-
- -m mag
- set the magnification at which the figure is rendered
- (default 1.0).
-
- -f font
- set the default font family used for text objects
- (default "cmr").
-
- -s fontsize
- set the default font size (in points) for text objects
- (default 11*mag).
-
- If there is no scaling, the default font is "\elvrm".
- Language and control specifiers may occur more than once;
- they affect the translation of files which appear to their
- right in the argument list. If no files are specified, then
- "*.fig" is assumed.
