LaTeXdraw uses UNIX and X-Windows. For translating a LaTeX-source document with pictures the style file latexdraw.sty must be included. This style file uses the package pstricks.tex (a standard package for LaTeX). For printing and previewing the DVI-file generated by latex or slitex is not suitable. You must translate the DVI-file to a Postscript-file by the program dvips.
Example:
Assuming a LaTeX-document with the file name myfile.tex,
the following commands do the job:
latex myfile.tex
dvips
myfile.dvi
The headline of myfile.tex could be
\documentstyle[latexdraw]{article}
