An application that will alleviate the burden of using eepic, PSTricks or LaTeX\'s picture environment macros in a LaTeX file jPicEdt is a software aimed at alleviating the burden of using eepic, PSTricks or LaTeX\'s picture environment macros in a LaTeX file.

jPicEdt allows the user to draw graphical objects using graphic primitives (e.g. splines, arcs, polygons,...), position them easily with the mouse, and add text using LaTeX/PsTricks box commands (e.g. dashbox, psframebox,...).

Yet this is not a 100% WYSIWYG software, and arguments of box commands are displayed as is (jpicedt doesn\'t include any TeX compiler !).

As of release 1.4.X, pictures can be saved to one of the three following formats:

  • LaTeX\'s standard picture environment, including emulated objects, e.g. lines of any slope (which LaTeX doesn\'t support natively), circles of any size, ellipses, arcs and polygons.
  • epic/eepic, including dashed lines, shading, filled arcs,...
  • PSTricks macro packages: almost every macro in the pstricks.sty base package are supported.

    jPicEdt can also parse files that include macros in one of these three formats. This allows in particular to load files generated by GnuPlot with a "gset term eepic" or "gset term pstricks" command.

    Here are some key features of "jPicEdt":
  • Every graphical element allowed by the picture environment commands: lines, arrows, circles, boxes.
  • Emulated elements, for example lines of any slope (which LaTeX doesn\'t support natively), circles of any size, ellipses, arcs and polygons. This makes a strong use of the multiput command.
  • Nearly every object allowed by the epic/eepic packages (excluding grids and textured filling): dashed lines, filled (whitened, blackened or shaded) ellipses or polygons, arcs,... Using this package is optional.
  • Starting from version 1.3.2, nearly every object in the pstricks.sty package (this include : filling with colors, hatches, textures, setting various stroke parameters, rotating texts,...). Support for pst-node.sty and other related packages is either experimental (meaning that you must recompile with a boolean flag turned on) or simply underway.
