I would like to have an option for exporting using fig2eps and fig2pdf
packages obtained at

http://sourceforge.net/projects/fig2ps/

This package transparently uses latex to change special text to a
formatted eps or pdf.

It behaves similarly to the eepic export option but with advantages
over it.

thanks

This issue was forwarded upstream in
https://sourceforge.net/p/mcj/tickets/104/

Upstream maintainer tagged the ticket "wontfix" with the following comment:

| The behavior of fig2ps is obtained by exporting in page-mode to tikz
| or pict2e, and tex'ing the resulting file:
|
| fig2dev -L tikz -P in.fig o.tex && xelatex o.tex
| # if patterns are not used, pict2e also works
| fig2dev -L pict2e -P in.fig o.tex && xelatex o.tex
|
| Both the above command result in o.pdf.

So I now also tag this issue "wontfix" here (not sure, whether I
should close the issue or keep it for documentation).

Greetings
Roland
