The user should promptly familiarize him/her self with the left alligned commands; the indented ones are less used. %%% Commands for article header or style file \input boxedeps.tex %% obligatory (except for LaTeX, see below) \input boxedeps.cfg %% can replace next line: \Set...EPSFSpecial %% e.g. \SetOzTeXEPSFSpecial \ShowDisplacementBoxes%\HideDisplacementBoxes %%alternatives \SetEPSFDirectory{} \SetDefaultEPSFScale{} \EmulateRokicki %%% EPSF insertion \BoxedEPSF{ scaled } %% scaled ... is optional \tBoxedEPSF{...} %% 3 variants: \bBoxedEPSF{...} \cBoxedEPSF{...} \EPSFbox{...} %% like Rokicki's syntax: \EPSFfile{...} %%% Adjustments that may preceed each \BoxedEPSF... \TrimTop{} \TrimLeft{} \TrimBottom{} \TrimRight{} \TrimBoundingBox{} \hSlide{} \vSlide{} \ForceWidth{} \EPSFxsize= \ForceHeight{} \EPSFysize= \ForceOn (cf.\ForceOff) %%% Typical (minimal) Plain TeX example: \input boxedeps.tex \input boxedeps.cfg \midinsert \centerline{\BoxedEPSF{gdisk.eps}} \endinsert \bye This list can serve to locate details by string search. Some alternative older terminology is supported for compatibility (but not recommended); it is found inside boxedeps.tex. *** LaTeX syntax variants *** BoxedEPS is compatible with LaTeX (2.09 or 2e). No change of syntax is necessary. However, those who use LaTeX to the exclusion of other TeX formats will find Alun Carr's "LaTeX wraper" boxedeps.sty helpful to bring BoxedEPS into line with LaTeX conventions. The following LaTeX syntax is valid as soon as the auxilliary file boxedeps.sty is available to LaTeX. \usepackage[
