      PSfragX offers a mechanism to embed \psfrag commands provided by
      the <xref refid="psfrag">psfrag</xref> package into the EPS file
      itself. Each time a graphic is included, the eps file is
      scanned. If some tagged lines are found, they are used to define
      the psfrag replacements that should be performed automatically.
      <p/> Though a similar mechanism is implemented in psfrag,
      (legends of the form \tex[][]{}), psfragx offers much more
      flexibility. For example, if babel is used, it is possible to
      define different replacements corresponding to different
      languages. The replacements to take into account will be
      selected on the basis of the current language of the document.
      <p/> In addition, a similar mechanism holds for overpic
      objects. These are picture objects superimposed on the included
      graphic.  <p/> Everything can be performed automatically, though
      some intervention of the user is possible after the inclusion of
      the psfrag replacements coming from the EPS file and before the
      inclusion of the EPS file itself
