DESCRIPTION
Transfigcreates a makefile to translate figures described in Fig codeor PIC into a specified LaTeX graphics
language.PIC files are identified 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
psfigis like the
psspecifier, except that itmake use of the psfig macro package.The specifier
pstexis like
psfig,except that it uses LaTeX to process formatted (special) text.The specifier
nullresults in the figures being replaced by empty boxes of theappropriate size.If no language is specified,
epicis 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 theirright in the argument list. If no files are specified, then "*.fig" is assumed.
