Dear all,

I’m typesetting a book, and I have many figures on white background.

I’m scaling figures using something like this

\placefigure[][volumina]{G. Ligeti, {\em Volumina}.}{
\externalfigure[img/chap02/11][width=\textwidth]}

is there a way to plot text boundaries so to check by eye if they’re contained inside it?

Thanks

Best
