[Ipe-discuss] latex document options?

[Hein Roehrig]

Dear *,

I am using IPE 6.0pre9 from the Debian package ipe 6.0pre9-2.

My main document uses 12pt fonts and I would like that text in my
drawings uses the same font size. I managed to get this working using

\makeatletter
\renewcommand\normalsize{%
   \fontsize{12\p@}{14.5\p@}\selectfont%
   \abovedisplayskip 12\p@ \@plus3\p@ \@minus7\p@
   \abovedisplayshortskip \z@ \@plus3\p@
   \belowdisplayshortskip 6.5\p@ \@plus3.5\p@ \@minus3\p@
   \belowdisplayskip \abovedisplayskip
   \let\@listi\@listI}
\makeatother

stolen from size12.clo -- but this of course does not redefine \large
etc. Is there an easier way to achieve this? Also, it appears that style
sheets don't save the preamble information, so I would have to manually
copy this preamble to all my graphics...

Thanks in advance for any advice,
Hein
