+Subject: Multiple page postscrip include?
+
+Recently I've needed to include a several page poscript file inside a
+LaTeX document, but haven't had much success. I am reasonably
+experienced at including single encapsulated postscript files in LaTeX
+documents, but have had no success with multiple page files.
+
+I need to include some publications within a thesis, and would prefer
+that the entire document be formed as a single LaTeX file.
+
+Any help is appreciated.
+
+Thanks, Iain.

+
+I assume you're using dvips (most people are, but you don't say)
+
+The documentation explains how to include encapsulated PostScript, and
+I had read it as saying that this is the *only* thing you can include.
+
+When I posted a response on exactly this subject on comp.text.tex last
+week, saying exactly that, I was told that the documentation doesn't
+*say* anywhere that it won't take any but encapsulated PostScript; but
+rest assured that it won't.

+
+You have the PostScript of the publications? Do you also have access
+to the LaTeX original? If so, could you not hack that into your
+document? If not, you're into either hacking single pages out of the
+PostScript, or using some sort of psconcat program (of which I know of
+none, but no doubt they exist somewhere or other...).

+Subject: SetFigFont
+
+I know I've asked this question here before, but why oh why oh why do
+xfig figures exported as latex include \SetFigFont's which my latex2e
+complains about? Am I missing a style file or something?
+(N.B. I do not want to export things as eps and then \epsffile them as
+I want to take advantage of some of latex's typesetting in the figure
+itself)
