-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label labelfig</title>
-</head><body>
-<h3>Labelling graphics</h3>
-<p/>&ldquo;Technical&rdquo; graphics (such as graphs and diagrams) are often
-labelled with quite complex mathematical expressions: there are few
-drawing or graphing tools that can do such things (the honourable
-exception being MetaPost, which allows you to program the labels, in
-(La)TeX, in the middle of specifying your graphic).
-<p/>Labels on graphics produced by all those <em>other</em> tools is where
-the <i>psfrag</i> package can help. Place an unique
-text in your graphic, using the normal text features of your tool, and
-you can ask <i>psfrag</i> to replace the text with arbitrary
-(La)TeX material. <i>Psfrag</i>&rsquo;s &ldquo;operative&rdquo; command is
-<code>\</code><code>psfrag{<em>PS text</em>}{<em>Repl text</em>}</code>, which instructs
-the system to replace the original (&ldquo;<code>PS</code>&rdquo;) text with the
-TeX-typeset replacement text. Optional
-arguments permit adjustment of position, scale and rotation; full
-details may be found in <i>pfgguide</i> in the distribution.
-<p/>Since <i>psfrag</i> works in terms of (encapsulated) PostScript files,
-it needs extra work for use with PDFLaTeX. The
-<a href="FAQ-pdftexgraphics.html"><i>pst-pdf</i> package</a> can support such
-usage. In fact, the <i>pst-pdf</i> support package
-<i>auto-pst-pdf</i> offers a configuration setting precisely for
-use with <i>psfrag</i>.
-<p/>On the other hand,
-
- <a href="FAQ-commercial.html">VTeX</a>&rsquo;s GeX processor
-explicitly deals with <i>psfrag</i>, both in its free and
-commercial instances.
-<p/>The <i>psfragx</i> package goes one step further than
-<i>psfrag</i>: it provides a means whereby you can put the
-<i>psfrag</i> commands into the preamble of your EPS file
-itself. <i>Psfrag</i> has such a command itself, but deprecates
-it; <i>psfragx</i> has cleaned up the facility, and provides a
-script <i>laprint</i> for use with <i>Matlab</i> to produce
-appropriately tagged output. (In principle, other graphics
-applications could provide a similar facility, but apparently none does.)
-<p/><i>Emacs</i> users may find the embedded editor <i>iTe</i> a
-useful tool for placing labels: it&rsquo;s a (La)TeX-oriented graphical
-editor written in <i>Emacs Lisp</i>. You create
-<code>iteblock</code> environments containing graphics and text, and
-may then invoke <i>iTe</i> to arrange the elements relative to one
-another.
-<p/>Another useful approach is <i>overpic</i>, which overlays a
-<code>picture</code> environment on a graphic included by use of
-<code>\</code><code>includegraphics</code>. This treatment lends itself to ready placement
-of texts and the like on top of a graphic. The package can draw a
-grid for planning your &ldquo;attack&rdquo;; the distribution comes with simple
-examples.
-<p/><i>Pstricks</i> can of course do everything that <i>overpic</i>
-can, with all the flexibility of PostScript programming that it offers
-The <i>pstricks</i> web site has a page with several
-<a href="http://pstricks.tug.org/main.cgi?file=Examples/overlay">examples of labelling</a>
-which will get you started; if <i>pstricks</i> is
-<a href="FAQ-drawing.html">an option for you</a>, this route is worth a try.
-<p/>The confident user may, of course, do the whole job in a picture
-environment which itself includes the graphic. I would recommend
-<i>overpic</i> or the <i>pstricks</i> approach, but such things
-are plainly little more than a convenience over what is achievable
-with the do-it-yourself approach.
