Thanks for the example, that is exactly what was needed. I can replicate
what you are reporting above. However, from the fig2sty man page:
[...]
Several key words are interpreted by "fig2sty":
"type"
This tag is compulsory; a frame will not be detected as such if you
don't provide a type tag. [...]
You are not allowed to have a polygonal area without the "text" tag. When I
delete also the text "n=1" from that polygon, fig2sty works as expected,
i.e. an empty polygon is shown in example.ps (attached below).
Could you please confirm that the same happens to you?
