SIMPLE ALTERNATIVE
If you have a word processor (like MS WORD) that allows you to insert special symbols like ½ ° µ you can just copy and paste them directly into MATLAB. If using an m file just copy paste these characters into your quoted character array and pass it to your call to set tick labels. The characters are not exactly the same as the TeX characters so make sure you are consistent with this strategy.
Why is all this functionality not yet added to matlab's hgexport.m file? The tight bounding box calculation which includes ALL text labels vs. just the axes is clearly an improvement. I am using 7.7.0.471 (R2008b)
Great software.
How do you control the size of the output PDF or EPS? I want to reduce the size.
In addition, the -painters option does not work for me, in pdf/eps files. I tried it on various linux and win systems.
Nice utility.
Why have you chosen to ignore the rgb color scheme? Print handles them as a default and I would expect this to as well (or at least an option).
The easiest fix is to take line 282 and replace
args = {args{:}, ['-d' format],'-cmyk'};
with
args = {args{:}, ['-d' format]};
Line 967 error if ylabs iscell. Same error as Yuaval. I set my ylabels to a cell array of strings. A quick fix for me, but I figured I would mention it. Thanks!
