Hi,
I'm trying to use the pstex format (exporting from XFig) as suggested in
the users' guide to get the same fonts throughout the document (looks
_really_ nice!).

I have one problem that I do not understand, though. In one document I get
the error:

[6] (figs/symmetry.pstex_t
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> \xivpt 
                  
l.28 ...ont{14}{16.8}{rm}Degrees from vertical }}}

this happens even when I run latex from the command line. On the other
hand, in another document I use the same mechanism with another figure and
everything works. Please give me any hint about what might be wrong!
I have rotated text only in the doc that has troubles, may this be the
reason? I am using 0.12.1pre5.

I also have a question: the pstex files show up correctly if treated as a
normal .eps file inside Lyx (without text of course). I wonder then if
it may be possible in some future version to have the pstex_t included
automatically when using a .pstex file in a figure. In this way one could
have a uniform mechanism for .eps and .pstex figures (text in the same
font is nice, but previewving is nice also!).

I realise that adding the text inside Lyx in the .pstex preview is
probably a tough job, but I think most people would be satisfied with the
drawn part. One can add a warning after the figure, like:

---------------
|             |
| pstex here  |          
|             |
--------------
(Lyx warning: the text for this picture will be taken from file
myfig.pstex_t)

or something like this...

Thanks for the wonderful program!
