   Does anybody have a description of how to mix LaTeX formulas and xfig?
   I know how to extract the drawings from an xfig plot to an EPS-file and
   the text part to a tex-file, but how do I then plot the text in the correct
   positions from LaTeX? I usually use epsf.sty to handle PostScript from LaTeX
   and dvips to print.

Use the transfig package. In particular the translation to psfig:

	transfig -L psfig .....

This translator will generate the code necessary to load the text part
in the .tex file and the postscript part in the .ps part. Then after
running latex you just send it to a postscript printer in the ussual
way, it should work just fine.

If you are using the latest versions of xfig, you probably need to
specify that your strings are Special. Use the edit-object mode to do
this.
