Hi
I do the following and it works extremely well.
[1] Draw figure in xfig
[2] Export as Encapsulated Post Script, Portrait Mode and usuall
magnification of 30% as otherwise it is too big,
[3] Latex looks like this:
\documentstyle[epsf, blah]{blah}
...
...
\begin{figure}[h]
\begin{centre}
\leavemode\hbox{\epsfbox{picture.eps}}
\end{center}
\caption{\label{whatever}This is the caption}
\end{figure}
That's it.
Cheerio
