I'm importing .eps in LaTeX. I want to resize image to fit my purposes. I want to do that only by one scale, X or Y (disproportional). The problem is that labels (font and size) become distorted.

Is there some way to change one scale (e.g. width) and to keep labels as they in original?

  • This is a nasty issue in my opinion. If you have your figure in a vector drawing software then together with the \psfrag command, you can work on the fonts in your LaTeX code itself. – yCalleecharan Nov 30 '11 at 06:37

No matter which way you scale, the fonts etc. used in the image will also be affected by that scaling. Here is an example, substitute your own image

\documentclass[a4paper]{memoir}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\newlength\mylen
\settoheight\mylen{\includegraphics{x-1}}
\includegraphics[width=6cm,height=\mylen]{x-1}
\includegraphics{x-1}
\end{document}

I used this metapost code, and ran it through mptopdf

beginfig(1);
label(btex "This is some text" etex, origin);
endfig;
end;
