+<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label fig</title>
+</head><body>
+<h3>Fig, a (La)TeX-friendly drawing package</h3>
+<p/><i>(X)Fig</i> is a menu driven tool that allows you to
+draw objects on the screen of an X workstation; <i>transfig</i>
+is a set of tools which translate the code <i>fig</i>. The list
+of export formats is very long, and includes Metafont and MetaPost,
+Encapsulated PostScript and PDF, as well as combinations that wrap
+a graphics format in a LaTeX import file.
+<p/>There&rsquo;s no explicit port of <i>xfig</i> to windows (although it is
+believed to work under <i>cygwin</i> with their X-windows system).
+However, the program
+<a href="http://tech-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/applets/javafig/"><i>jfig</a></i>
+is thought by many to be an acceptable substitute, written in Java.
