I'm sure you +will agree that never needing to run ps2frag again is a nice convenience! +.P +However, there are two significant differences in the way this new version +of PSfrag works. Please make yourself aware of them: +.P +1) XDvi is no longer able to determine where your PSfrag replacements +should +go, so instead it lines them up in a vertical list to the left of the +figure. This allows you to confirm that they have been typeset properly, at +least. However, to confirm that PSfrag +.B positions +your replacements properly, you will have to view the PostScript +version of your file with a viewer like GhostView, or print it out. +This seems to be the +only disadvantage to the elimination of the pre-processing step. +.P +2) If you embed '\\tex' commands inside your figures, you now need to +explicitly _tell_ PSfrag to process these commands. To do so, use +\\usepackage[scanall]{psfrag} +instead of +\\usepackage{psfrag} +at the beginning of your LaTeX file. +.P +If you only use '\\tex' commands in a small number of figures, then a +more efficient might be to turn on '\\tex'-scanning only for those +figures. To do that, add the command '\\psfragscanon' immediately before +each relevant \\includegraphics or \\epsfbox command. +.P +.SH NOTES +See the PSfrag documentation for further information. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +dvips(1), gs(1), ghostview(1), latex(1) +.SH AUTHORS +.IP psfrag@rascals.stanford.edu +The PSfrag maintainer's mailing list. |
