Subject: Has anybody used asymptote without LaTeX?
Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2008 10:35:00 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <769ba7780809271935y37d91cbfk1ef2380e367c196c@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

It is said that Asymptote has supported PRC format 3D file:
http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/gallery/3D%20graphs/

I really wanna give it a try, but once I was building from the svn
source, I was told that I don't have LaTeX in my $PATH. I haven't
really been using LaTeX for a long time, and I prefer I don't need
to install a bunch of LaTeX programs and packages just for a
drawing program which, IMHO, only use LaTeX to make nice
labels.

Is there any workarounds? And how to embed .prc files into
the .pdf document?
