Hi,
I have finally been able to test the new graph export features, and it
works great for me. Thanks a lot, this is very useful. (Tested on
windows, you mentioned that on Linux the standard distro install of
gnuplot typically wouldn't make it possible, right?)
Is there any specific reason why the font/size selection interface in
those new dialogs are different between "save as pdf" and "save as
eps"?
In Linux I may confirm that "Save as EPS" allows to change the line thickness
and the font very well. We don't have a "Save as PDF" option, but in Linux
is
easy to convert the .EPS file to .PDF.
Also I'm wondering whether it's ideal to have two consecutive places
where to choose the fontface. (In the edit graph dialog and in the new
save as pdf dialog for example.) Right now I don't have time to make a
constructive alternative suggestion, but I'll think about it.
I understand that selecting the fontface in the edit graph dialog affects all
the fonts, including the fonts displayed at the screen and to the bitmap (PNG)
and EMF files. You will want only to change the font or line thickness of the
EPS/PDF file when you write a final paper and you need a better print quality.
