Description: converts xfig files to PostScript or PDF, processing text with LaTeX

Long Description: fig2ps is a perl script which converts xfig files to PostScript or PDF, processing text with LaTeX. Its primary aim is to produce documents (such as articles) with a high quality, in which the pictures are seamlessly integrated with the text (notably, the font in the figures is exactly the same as in the text).
