TRANSFIG(1) USER COMMANDS TRANSFIG(1)
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.
