Section 11 Graphics
Some graphics languages require the
xelatex
engine, which this document presumes.Subsection 11.1 PSTricks
PSTricks is a LaTeX package for drawing diagrams and pictures, dating back to the days before PDF when PostScript (PS) was king. Given its history, it does not seem to work easily with the
pdflatex
engine. But it will work easily with the xelatex
engine. So we test and document this approach here.For the following we add
\usepackage{pstricks-add}
to the
latex-image-preamble
portion of docinfo
. Your diagrams might be fine with simply the pstricks
package. Following comes fromhttps://www.tug.org/PSTricks/main.cgi?file=Examples/polar#lemniscate

Note that the
width
attribute is respected for HTML output, but ignored for the LaTeX output. This situation could change.
