xs2ps

export graphics to PS

Syntax

xs2ps(win_num, file_name [,orientation])
xs2ps(fig, file_name [,orientation])

Arguments

win_num

an integer, ID of the figure to export.

fig

handle of the figure to export.

orientation

an optional string, with possible values 'portrait' or 'landscape'. The default value is 'portrait'.

Description

xs2ps exports the display of a graphic window into a PostScript file.

Note that the generated Postscript file cannot be directly printed since it requires a header file. The function xs2eps can be used to directly produce an Encapsulated Postscript file with a header.

Examples

scf(0);
plot2d();
// Postcript export
filename='foo.ps';
xs2ps(0,filename);
