MetaPost

MetaPost是一個程序語言和它的編譯器的名字，衍生於高德納的Metafont。MetaPost擅長通過數學描述製作向量圖，生成的圖片為PostScript格式。它的語法來自Metafont。

這個文件example.mp通過MetaPost的編譯器編譯（在Linux系統中使用mpost命令）之後產生了3個EPS文件： example.1, example.2, example.3。這三個文件就是右邊的三張圖

產生的3個eps文件可以直接用在TeX中（通過LaTeX的\includegraphics命令、ConTeXt的\externalfigure命令、Plain TeX的\epsfbox命令，或者Plain pdftex中來自supp-pdf.tex的\convertMPtoPDF命令。為了看或者打印這三張圖片，這些引用是必須的，因為TeX的字體(Metafont)並不包含在MetaPost產生的eps文件中。
