  However, some figures need to have lines that meet very precisely (no
overshoots or gaps between them) or be placed with high precision. While
this may well be possible and easy for those more skilled than I am, I found
my xfig and similar figures to look sloppy when enlarged. The solution for
this is to code the image as one would code LaTeX,

Xfig has snap to grid modes, for square and triangular grids. This yields lines, boxes and circles where lines don't overshoot. Consider circles where the radius is a multiple of 5. Such a circle has 12
points around the edge where lines can end exactly on the circle.
Most other circles only have 4 such points.
