I was wondering if someone can let me know if there is an
anonymous ftp place where to find these PD programs? Thanks,

Try using archie, which is a great program that can find most anything.

% archie pic2fig

Host reseq.regent.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de

    Location: /informatik.public/comp/typesetting/tex/unix_tex/tex82/TeXgraphics
/transfig
      DIRECTORY drwxrwxr-x        512  Mar  9 1989  pic2fig

Host dsrbg2.informatik.tu-muenchen.de

    Location: /pub/tex/unix_tex/tex82/TeXgraphics/transfig
      DIRECTORY drwxrwxr-x        512  Mar  9 1989  pic2fig

Archie doesn't find anything for plot2fig.

p.s. I usually answer questions like this with personal mail. I
