If I edit the fig file with Xfig, I have to change the value of "special flag" to "special" and the font to a LaTeX font instead of a postscript font. If these changes are not made, the pstex_t file produced from fig2dev doesn't contain the text as it should. So if I input the pstex_t in a tex file, the text in the figure is not in the same font as the rest of the document.
I'm exporting figures like this: xfig(file="test.fig", width=5, height=4, onefile=TRUE) plot(data,xlab="Something", ylab="Some other thing") dev.off() The xfig command does have an argument called encoding, but I can't figure out if this can be used to make the changes I want. In the par command there's an argument called family, which is used to specify the font family in figures, but I don't know how changes this font to a LaTeX font. Thanks for your help!
