The output file +.I (tex-file), +if not presented, will be the stdout. +If the +.I fig-file +is not presented, input will be assumed to come from the stdin. +The output from fig2epic can be edited to change font sizes/types. +.LP +Fig (Facility for Interactive Generation of figures) is a screen-oriented +tool which allows the user to draw and manipulate objects interactively. +It runs under the Suntools/Sunview window environment. +Fig2epic is compatible with Fig versions 1.3 and 1.4. +.LP +EPIC is an enhancement to LaTeX picture drawing environment. +It was developed by Sunil Podar of Department of Computer Science +in S.U.N.Y at Stony Brook. +.LP +EEPIC is an extension to EPIC and LaTeX picture drawing +environment. It was written by Conrad Kwok of Division of +Computer Science at University of California, Davis. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B \-S +Set the scale at which the figure is rendered to. This option +automatically set the magnification and default font to +.I scale +/ 12 and +.I scale +-tt respectively. The font can be changed using \-F option. +The default is 12 and other valid options are 8, 9, 10 and 11. +.TP +.B \-s +Change the default font size to +.I size +.TP +.B \-m +Set the magnification at which the figure is rendered to +.I mag. +The default is 1.0 unless \-s option is used. +.TP +.B \-c +Use +.I cfg-file +as the configuration file. +.TP +.B \-F +Set the font specification command which precedes every text object in the +picture to +.I fspec. +This option, if specified, overrides any font changing commands. +The default is none. +Note that no "\\" is required in the font name. +.TP +.B \-l +Use "\fB\\thicklines\fR" when width of the line is wider than +.I lwidth. +The default is 2. +.TP +.B \-L +Use the specified language +.I lang +in the output. Default is EEPIC. Other valid options are EPIC and +EEPIC-EMU. EEPIC-EMU is for use with EEPIC emulation package. +.TP +.B \-v +Include comment in the output file. + +.SH LATEX MACROS +In order to include EPIC or EEPIC pictures into a document, it is +necssary to load the EPIC and EEPIC macros. It can be done by +including \fBEPIC\fR and \fBEEPIC\fR in \fB\\documentstyle\fR +option. See the EPIC or EEPIC manaul for details. + +.SH Configuration File +All the defaults in fig2epic can be changed using configuration +file. When fig2pic is executed, it will look for the files +specified in \-c option if any, +.I fig-file.cfg +(if +.I fig-file +is ended with ".fig", it will be replaced by ".cfg"), fig2epic.cfg +and $HOME/.fig2epic in the order specified above. The first +configuration file found will be used. + +.TP +.I LowerLeftX +This specify X coordinate of the lower left hand corner of the Fig +picture. Default is 0. +.TP +.I LowerLeftY +This specify Y coordinate of the lower left hand corner in unitlength of the Fig +picture. Default is 0. +.TP +.I TopMargin +Set the distance in unitlength of the figure from the top of the +LaTeX picture box. Default is 5. +.TP +.I BottomMargin +Set the distance in unitlength of the figure from the bottom of the +LaTeX picture box. Default is 10. +.TP +.I SegmentLength +The maximum segment length in inch used in generating splines +(for EPIC) and arc (for EPIC and EEPIC-EMU). Default is 0.0625 +inch. +.TP +.I TextFont +Set the font used for all text. This option overrides FontType +and FontSize. However, it is overrided by \-s, -S and -F options. +Note that no "\\" is required in the font name. +.TP +.I Magnification +Same as \-m option. Default is 1.0. +.TP +.I Verbose +Same as \-v. Default is FALSE +.TP +.I DotDistance +Dot distance in unitlength for dotted lines. +.TP +.I LineThick +Same as \-l. Default is 2. +.TP +.I Language +Same is -L. Default is EEPIC +.TP +.I DashScale +Scale the dash length. Default is 1.0. +.TP +.I EllipseCommand +Specify the command used in drawing an ellipse. Default is +ellipse for EEPIC or EEPIC-EMU. oval is always used for EPIC. Possible +values are ellipse and oval. +.TP +.I UseBox +Specify whether fig2epic should generate \\framebox and/or +\\dashbox command +in the output file or not. Default is not to use the *box +command. Possible options are none, solid, dash and both. +.TP +.I DashType +This option is only used when EPIC option is selected. Valid options +are "Normal" (use dashline in drawing dash lines), "Economic" +(use drawline with -50 stretch in drawing dash lines) and +"Dotted" (use dotted lines to replace dash lines). Default is +"Normal". "Normal" option will use up TeX memory quickly if long +dash lines are drawn. If you get "TeX Capacity Exceed" error, you should +try the "Economic" or "Dotted" option. +.TP +.I FontType +Selects one of the following font types as the default--Roman, +Bold, Italics, Modern and Typewriter. Default is Typewriter. +.TP +.I FontSize +Selects default font size in points. Default is 12. + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +fig(1), +EPIC manual, +EEPIC manual and TransFig manual +.SH AUTHOR +Conrad Kwok (kwok@iris.ucdavis.edu) +.br +University of California, Davis +.br +August 14, 1988 +.sp +modified from fig2latex, fig2tex and f2p. |
