Announcement text:
The package lpic defines convenient interface to put any LaTeX material on top of included graphics. LaTeX material could also be rotated and typeset on top of a white box overshadowing graphics. Coordinates of LaTeX boxes are given relative to the original, unscaled graphics, when graphics is rescaled, LaTeX annotations stay at their right places (unless you do something extreme). In a draft mode it allows to draw a coordinate grid over the picture for easy adjustment of positions of the annotations.
