TRANSFIG(1)TRANSFIG(1)NAMEtransfig - creates a makefile for portable LaTeX figures
SYNOPSIStransfig [ -L language ] [ -M makefile ] [ -T texfile ] [ -I macrofile
] [ -V ] [ control_specs figfile ... ] ...]
DESCRIPTION
Transfig creates a makefile to translate figures described in Fig code
or PIC into a specified LaTeX graphics language. PIC files are identi‐
fied by the suffix ".pic"; 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, pstex, textyl, tpic, or null. The specifier psfig
is like the ps specifier, except that it make use of the psfig macro
package. The specifier pstex is like psfig, except that it uses LaTeX
to process formatted (special) text. 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. If the -I option is specified, then a command to read in
macrofile is inserted into the TeX macro file. If the -V option
is specified, the program version number is printed only.
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
"rm").
-s fontsize
set the default font size (in points) for text objects (default
11*mag).
-o option
pass the specified option string through to fig2dev.
If there is no scaling, the default font is an eleven point roman font.
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.
