The reason behind starting this thread was the fact that I want my
\useMPgraphic's arbitrarily (and perfectly) scaled. In Metapost/Metafun that is
easily done through a \MPvar{scale} variable, applied to the main dimensions on
which all measures in my figures depend. But for the fontsizes this turned out
to be not so easy. Understandable, because text is typeset at the TeX-end not
inside the Metapost.
Perhaps a better and possibly more elegant way seems the following route. When
I turn Metapost figures into external pdf-files, these can be placed with
\useexternalfigure and the scaled as a whole, drawing and text alike. My
question is: can this be done without resorting to an external pdf? That is,
can I pick up the result of \useMPgraphic somewhere, then put this in
\useexternalfigure and apply everything possible there to the figure.
Does someone know how to?
