Comment 3 for bug 170736

First of all, thanks for such a wonderful piece of art!

I agree that direct import of LaTeX text objects (such as
labels, math and paragraphs) would be really good, instead
of using just psfrag postprocessing.

In fact, the latest rebuilt of Ipe 6 (which also uses a XML
native format) already implements this feature with
on-the-fly pdfLaTeX compilaton of, not only simple text, but
full minipages:

Also, their editor comes with a very interesting PDF import
tool ;)

Thanks again
