Perfect output, including all fonts.
If I understand you, this is alos using cairo, right?
(This should be a clue about the PNG bug.)
So I must be misunderstanding something. If I try to produce
PDF as follows, it fails. (White background, nothing else is viewable.)
I go to the icon view to edit the graph and change
#set term pngcairo font "verdana,8" size 680,400
to
set term pdfcairo font "verdana,8" size 680,400
Ah, that calls for a plot that is 680 inches by 400 inches.
PDF and EPS don't go by pixels for sizing.
