Hallo Dave,

1. TeX is installed as MacTeX (essentially TeX Live) http://tug.org/mactex2 .
2. In addition, the command epspdf is available, see http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/epspdf (This is not epstopdf!!!)

The only thing that is Mac-specific is the Editor I use for LaTeX: TeXShop. It has a convenient functionality to run latex, dvipdf, ps2pdf13 and epspdf on the LaTeX-file that annotates the eps-graphic ("engines") - other OSs and editors have other ways to do that.

Nothing in the procedure is Mac-specific. Instead of MacTeX/TeXLive, it could also be a MikTeX/Winedt install on a PC. The only thing that is OS and user specific is a way to run the necessary sequence of commands on the .tex file.

See also the LaTeX & Co section on my homepage http://www.wiwi.uni-rostock.de/~wsf8545/

Does that help you already? What other info is necessary?

Daniel

I would be very interested in a detailed FAQ on your system for doing this on a Mac. Maybe it could grow into a graphics hacks file for others OSs like the text editor files has grown. I use a Mac.

Has anyone developed a way or method to incorporate LaTeX formatted
text into a Stata graph? It would be great if the Stata graph editor
had the capability to generate LaTeX formatted annotations. For Mac
users, I have in mind something along the lines of the program LaTeXiT
that allows one to add snippets of LaTeX text to Powerpoint or Keynote
presentations.
