eSubject: xfig-doc: example for latex export does not compile
Package: xfig-doc
Version: 1:3.2.5-rel-2
Severity: normal


Two errors in the latex example given in section "LaTeX and Xfig":
( in file /usr/share/doc/xfig/html/frm_miscellaneous.html )

1) The preamble starts with 
        \documentstyle[12pt,bezier,amstex]{article}
should be:
        \documentclass[12pt,bezier,amstex]{article}
else, contemporary latex will choke on the \usepackage commands further down.


2) The line 
        \input{psfig}   % Capability to place postscript drawings
  will not work as it expects a file psfig.tex that is not distributed 
  anymore since it was converted into a style (psfig.fig). Thus the line 
  should read:
        \usepackage(psfig)  % Capability to place postscript drawings
