20 Nov 2009	export_fig Exports figures nicely to a number of vector & bitmap formats. Author: Oliver Woodford	Bob: set(gcf, 'color', 'none'); % Set the figure background to transparent set(gca, 'color', 'none'); % Set the axes background to transparent
18 Nov 2009	real2rgb & colormaps Converts intensity matrices into truecolor images. Author: Oliver Woodford	Richard: This issue is do do with the way MATLAB deals with the colormap, rather than the colormap itself, which is as it should be. MATLAB can only handle 256 level colormaps for indexed images (on Windows). Pcolor avoids the problem. So does using truecolor (rather than indexed) images. You can use real2rgb to generate a truecolor image from your 1024 level colormap and your indexed image.
12 Nov 2009	export_fig Exports figures nicely to a number of vector & bitmap formats. Author: Oliver Woodford	A reminder for everyone: As I say in the description, please do email me (use the "Contact Author link on my author page) when you have a problem, rather than place it here. I'll respond quicker, and also people finding the function won't think it never works!
10 Nov 2009	print_pdf Save figures to high quality pdfs with cropped borders and embedded fonts. Author: Oliver Woodford	Stefan: For some reason the eps file generated by MATLAB's print function doesn't name the fonts correctly. I suggest you contact TMW's technical support. If and when print generates an eps file correctly but print_pdf/export_fig doesn't then generate the correct pdf, then I will investigate further.
08 Nov 2009	print_pdf Save figures to high quality pdfs with cropped borders and embedded fonts. Author: Oliver Woodford	Stefan: Two things might help. Firstly, you need to make Ghostscript knows about the fonts you want to include. You can tell it where to look by using the -sFONTPATH="C:\blah\blah" option (obviously using the right path). Secondly, you need to make sure the fonts are in a format that Ghostscript understands. For example, I don't think it understands the OpenType format.

20 Nov 2009	export_fig Exports figures nicely to a number of vector & bitmap formats. Author: Oliver Woodford	Bob	Oliver, thanks very much but something is funny. If I have the property editor open for the original figure the color is white. I run the set commands and the color is none. I then use export_fig and the color goes back to white (as seen in the Property Manager), and the figure has a white background (export_fig foo.png -pdf; OS X 10.6.2, 2009b). Same white background on the pdf and the png.

20 Nov 2009	export_fig Exports figures nicely to a number of vector & bitmap formats. Author: Oliver Woodford	Bob	Wish I had found this great script sooner! Can someone tell me how to set the color property to 'none'. If you set edit figure and then use the property editor you only get an option for color (e.g. a palette), you can't type in 'none'. I'm missing something obvious here, can someone please help me with this.
