Greetings,

   I am trying to get a picture drawn using xfig into latex.
I drawn the picture and saved it as figure.fig. I then used 
fig2dev -L pic figure.fig > figure.pic and did "tpic figure.pic"
to obtain figure.tex.

   Question 1: I need the PicTeX macros in order for the figure 
to be processed by Latex.

   Question 2: Is there a better way of doing this ?

Any comment would be welcomed.

--Naji.
