\shead{NAME}
transfig -- creates a makefile for portable LaTeX figures
\shead{SYNOPSIS}
{\bf transfig}
[ -L %
\it language %
\rm  ]
[ -M %
\it makefile %
\rm  ]
[ -T %
\it texfile %
\rm  ]
[ %
\it control\_specs %
\rm  figfile ... ] ...]
\shead{DESCRIPTION}
{\it Transfig}
creates a makefile to translate figures described in Fig code, PostScript,
or PIC into a specified LaTeX graphics %
\it language%
\rm .
PostScript and PIC files are identified by the suffixes ".ps" and ".pic"
respectively;
Fig files can be specified either with or without the suffix ".fig" .
Transfig also creates a TeX macro file appropriate to the target language.
\shead{OPTIONS}
The %
\it language %
\rm  specifier must be either
%.T
{\bf epic}{\rm ,}
{\bf eepic}{\rm ,}
{\bf eepicemu}{\rm ,}
{\bf latex}{\rm ,}
{\bf pictex}{\rm ,}
{\bf ps}{\rm ,}
{\bf psfig}{\rm ,}
{\bf tpic}{\rm ,}
or
{\bf null}{\rm .}
The specifier
{\bf psfig}
is like the 
{\bf ps}
specifier, except that it
make use of the psfig macro package.
The specifier 
{\bf null}
results in the figures being replaced by empty boxes of the
appropriate size.
If no language is specified,
{\bf epic}
is the default.
\par
The names of the makefile and TeX macro file can be set with the
-M and -T options.
The default names are "Makefile" and "transfig.tex", respectively.
\par
Control specifiers are 
\begin{TPlist}{%
\bf --m %
\it  mag%
\rm }
\item[{%
\bf --m %
\it  mag%
\rm }]
set the magnification at which the figure is rendered (default 1.0).
\item[{%
\bf --f %
\it  font%
\rm }]
set the default font family used for text objects (default "%
\bf cmr%
\rm ").
\item[{%
\bf --s %
\it fontsize%
\rm }]
set the default font size (in points) for text objects (default 11*%
\it mag%
\rm ).
\end{TPlist}
If there is no scaling, the default font is "%
\bf \bs elvrm%
\rm ".
Language and control specifiers may occur more than once;
they affect the translation of files which appear to their
right in the argument list. 
If no files are specified, then "*.fig" is assumed.
