% MLF2PDF prints a PDF figure for inclusion in LaTeX documents, with
% LaTeX fonts. It creates a complete pdf-file with annotation of the
% figure (titles, labels and texts) and graphics (lines,arrows,markers,
% ...). This function uses the matlabfrag function and makes simply a
% concatenation of the text part and the graphical part in a single PDF
% file. It requires:
%
% MATLAB | OTHER
% -----------------|----------------------------
% matlabfrag.m | pdflatex
%
%
% USAGE:
% ------------------------
%
% mlf2pdf creates the PDF file of the current graphical figure (CGF)
% named LaTeXfile.pdf
%
% mlf2pdf(H) creates the PDF file from the graphical figure with
% handle H, named LaTeXfile.pdf
%
% mlf2pdf(H,FILENAME) creates the PDF file from the graphical figure
% with handle H, named FILENAME.PDF (FILENAME is a character array of
% the filename, with or without the extension .PDF)
%
% mlf2pdf(H,FILENAME,PACKAGES) to adding
% packages such as fonts, mathfont,...
% ex: PACKAGES = 'amssymb, times'
