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. ------------------------------ Date: 18 Jul 1994 13:53:06 +0000 From: rf@cl.cam.ac.uk (Robin Fairbairns) Subject: Re: Multiple page postscript files in LaTeX document In article (and earlier, in article ), I Scott wrote: >Recently I've needed to include a multiple page postscript (could be >eps) file in a LaTeX document. I'm reasonably experienced with single >page eps & ps files, but have had success with multiple page files. 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. >I need to include some publications within a thesis, and would prefer >that the entire document be formed as a single LaTeX file. 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...). - -- Robin (Campaign for Real Radio 3) Fairbairns rf@cl.cam.ac.uk U of Cambridge Computer Lab, Pembroke St, Cambridge CB2 3QG, UK Private page: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/rf/robin.html ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 19 Jul 1994 16:50:44 +0000 From: andrew@cogsci.ed.ac.uk (Andrew Fordham) 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) Andrew Andrew Fordham (Research Fellow) | University of Surrey Social and Computer Sciences Research Group | Department of Sociology Phone: +44 483 259292 (x3004) | Guildford Email: A.Fordham@surrey.ac.uk | GU2 5XH, UK ------------------------------ UK TeX Archive >>> tex.ac.uk <<< Part of the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN) tex.ac.uk -- mail [user@tex.ac.uk] ftp.tex.ac.uk -- anonymous ftp [username: anonymous, password: ] gopher.tex.ac.uk -- Gopher access www.tex.ac.uk -- World-Wide Web access [URL http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive] nfs.tex.ac.uk -- NFS access [nfs.tex.ac.uk:/public/ctan/tex-archive] \section Files of Interest tex-archive/00Contents tex-archive/CTAN.sites tex-archive/FILES.bydate tex-archive/FILES.byname tex-archive/FILES.bysize tex-archive/MAP tex-archive/README.archive-features tex-archive/README.site-commands tex-archive/README.uploads \section Digests This year's UKTeX back issues are stored in the archive in directory tex-archive/digests/uktex/94 This year's TeXhax back issues are stored in the archive in directory tex-archive/digests/texhax/94 Latest TeXhax: V94 #04 \section Media Distributions Postal addresses are given below. \subsection Washington Unix TeX distribution tape Our latest copy of May/June 1991 contains: TeX 3.14, LaTeX 2.09, Metafont 2.7, plus many utilities suitable for Unix 4.2/4.3BSD & System V tar format, 1 file (36Mb) Send One Quarter-Inch Cartridge, QIC-120 or QIC-150 format (DC600A or DC6150) with envelope AND stamps for return postage to David Osborne (address below); regret that due to currency exchange difficulties, this service is offered only within the UK. \section TeX Implementations for Small Computers \subsection PC and Mac disks From January 1994 the UK TeX Users' Group is distributing an emTeX kit for PCs, and an OzTeX kit for Macintosh.
