Based on Daniel Groger's work of five years ago, with minor changes http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel%40lists.lyx.org/msg169820.html This extends the support for Xfig LaTeX + PDF to a more modern and actively developed vector graphics editor. Embedded Objects manual updated, also to include a workaround for an Inkscape 0.91 bug.

# This script converts an SVG image to something that latex can process
|
|
# into high quality PostScript.
|
|
|
|
# Usage:
|
|
# python svg2pstex.py ${base}.fig ${base}.pstex
|
|
# This command generates
|
|
# ${base}.eps the converted eps file
|
|
# ${base}.pstex a tex file that can be included in your latex document
|
|
# using '\input{${output}}'.
|
|
#
|
|
# Note:
|
|
# Do not use this command as
|
|
# python svg2pstex.py file.fig file.eps
|
|
# the real eps file will be overwritten by a tex file named file.eps.
