16 Nov 2009	print_pdf Save figures to high quality pdfs with cropped borders and embedded fonts. Author: Oliver Woodford	Today the answer of TMW's support team arrived. They admit that the font support of the print function is limited to a few fonts only up to now. See http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/creating_plots/f3-103191.html#f3-96545 It it not sure if or when this will change. Thank you Oliver anyway! I now use Matlab for formatting the figure and the page size. Subsequently I print pdfs using an external pdf printer.
10 Nov 2009	print_pdf Save figures to high quality pdfs with cropped borders and embedded fonts. Author: Oliver Woodford	Hi Oliver, thanks for your reply. I only use ttf fonts at the moment. I tried your first suggestion, but nothing changed. I now use the options options = [options '-q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -sOutputFile="' dest '" -sFONTPATH="C:/Windows/Fonts"']; Obviously gs doesn't know the fonts except for the standard ones. I also tried to set the path: c:\> SET GS_LIB=c:\windows\fonts And I tried to add fonts to gs/fonts/fontmap (using FontMap v1.7), e.g. the line /Coronet (C:/WINDOWS/FONTS/coronet.ttf) ; But all I can see in the pdf file is this Courier font. Any other ideas? Did anyone successfully export other fonts to pdf? Stefan
06 Nov 2009	print_pdf Save figures to high quality pdfs with cropped borders and embedded fonts. Author: Oliver Woodford	Hi, not each font is exported correctly on my system. Ex: plot((0:10),sin(0:10)); set(gca,'FontName','Arial Black'); export_fig('test', '-pdf'); The font is not 'Arial Black' in this example, although beeing correctly displayed in Matlab. I'm using winXP, Matlab 7.8.0 (R2009a), Ghostscript 8.70, Adobe Reader 9.2.0. I tried some other fonts, only 'Arial' seems to work properly. Is this behavior reproducible on your systems or is a solution available? Thanks for your help! Stefan
