Name of contribution: combinedgraphics
Version number: v0.0.2-alpha
Author's name: Christian Schneider
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/combinedgraphics
Summary description: macro for inclusion of combined EPS/LaTeX and PDF/LaTeX graphics
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package provides a macro (|includecombinedgraphics|) for the
inclusion of combined EPS/LaTeX and PDF/LaTeX graphics (an export
format of Gnuplot, Xfig, and maybe other programs). Instead of including
the graphics with a simple |input|, the |includecombinedgraphics| macro
has some comforts:
* changing the font and color of the text of the LaTeX part
* rescaling the graphics without affecting the font of the
LaTeX part
* automatic inclusion of the vector graphics part, as far as LaTeX
part does not do it (e.g., for files exported from Gnuplot before
version 4.2)
* rescaling and rotating of complete graphics (similar to
|includegraphics| from graphicx package)
See `combinedgraphics.pdf' for detailed information on usage.
