Have you ever had problems with Mathematica fonts in EPS graphics? Do you want to have the same fonts as in your LaTeX files?
MathPSfrag is a Mathematica package providing a graphics export
function that automatically replaces Mathematica expressions in a
graphic by the corresponding LaTeX constructs and positions them
correctly. It thus facilitates the creation of publication-quality
Enscapulated PostScript (EPS) graphics. It can also create
LaTeX independent EPS and PDF files for processing with other
programs or pdfLaTeX.
To create the nicer plot, you have to add the following instructions:
Needs["MathPSfrag`"];
myplot = Plot[ ... ];
PSfragExport["myfilename", myplot];
Simple, isn’t it?
Admittedly, there are many fine-points I will not mention on this self-ad page. In particular, when you are not happy with Mathematica’s TeXForm output (quite likely), you will want to attach your own TeX code to each label. This is still easy, but you will actually have to read the manual.
As of January 15, 2008, the stable version is MathPSfrag-2.0.
Development will proceed in version 2.1.
Do not forget to download CustomTicks, too.
All of the following files are included in the above package and are only separately provided for convenient direct access.
Another useful program (which can turn psfrag-based images into PGF code) is
(only for archival purposes, no support)
