Could somebody kindly point me to an understandable explanation of how to use 
xfig produced figures in LyX? 
Help file Userguide tells me to check for detailed explanation under 
ImbeddedObjects but there I canĀ“t find any detailed explanation.

I have quite a number of xfig produced files which are all exported as .eps 
files and inserted in the LyX document as floats. 

My aim is to have the text of my fig files in the same font and size as the 
text in the document. This is not the case now.

Do I have to use for all my fig files the xfig -specialtext or is there a 
global command to do that for all files in one run?

 And how exactly do I get it into the document? Is it the pstex or the pstex_t 
file or both? Or is this done internally by LyX? With Enter (Einfuegen) File 
(Datei) external Material I get the fig file but the text of the pdf output 
is not scaled correctly (nor the fonts). Somehow I haven't caught the way of 
entering it. 

I am using version 1.5.4 of LyX
Has 1.5.5 or 1.6 a feature to insert fig files directly and the rest is done 
by the program?

Thanks a lot

Wolfgang
