Graphics code for non-LaTeX users. ================================== This directory provides a small wrapper file such that users of formats based on plain TeX may make use of some of the parts of the standard LaTeX distribution. These files are *NOT* supported by the LaTeX3 project, and any problems with them should *NOT* be reported to the LaTeX bugs system. Currently problems may be reported to me, carlisle@ma.man.ac.uk although as I only ever use LaTeX for documents, these files have not been extensively tested. If some plain TeX user wants to `adopt' them and take over their support then they are welcome to it:-) David Carlisle 1995/01/29 1996/11/13 This directory contains 00readme.txt This file. exmplpic.tex A plain TeX document using LaTeX' `picture mode': a portable means of producing simple diagrams. exmplgrf.tex A plain TeX document using the LaTeX graphicx package, for rotating and scaling text, and include PostScript and other graphics formats. (This will include the file a.ps available in the LaTeX graphics distribution.) exmplcol.tex A plain TeX document using the LaTeX color package, for producing colour. exmplpfg.tex A plain TeX document using the contributed LaTeX psfrag package, for including PostScript documents, while replacing certain text strings with TeX typeset replacements. This uses the example.eps figure from the psfrag 3.0 distribution. miniltx.tex A small `miniLaTeX' that defines fakes or otherwise hacks sufficient bits of LaTeX internals so that the packages can load. picture.tex The user interface to the picture environment. \input picture. Normally a plain-style syntax is used, viz \picture(100,100) .... \endpicture However if the command \LaTeXbegin is issued, then a LaTeX syntax of \begin{picture}(100,100) .... \end{picture} May be used. this may be prefered if the picture is being copied from a LaTeX document, or if it is produced automatically from a drawing tool such as xfig or texcad. autopict.ins picture.tex requires the use of the Standard LaTeX file autopict.sty. To generate this, either run the autoload.ins install file in the main LaTeX distribution, which will make autopict.sty along with some other files (not needed here) or alternatively just obtain obtain ltpictur.dtx and docstrip.tex from the LaTeX distribution, and TeX the file autopict.ins that is included in this distribution. graphicx.tex The user interface to the graphicx package. \input graphicx See the documentation in grfguide.ps in the LaTeX graphics distribution. This file sets the driver to be dvips. If you use another driver, edit accordingly. color.tex The user interface to the color package. \input color See the documentation in grfguide.ps in the LaTeX graphics distribution. This file sets the driver to be dvips. If you use another driver, edit accordingly. psfrag.tex The user interface to the psfrag package. \input psfrag See the documentation in pfgguide.tex in the psfrag distribution, and the example document pfgexmpl.tex included here.
