I think WYSIWYG output has been a substantial matlab issue since Windows 
3.1, at least.  In most, if not all, of my other apps, I need do nothing 
more than select all, copy, and paste to get flawless output into any app 
I want it in-- not so with Matlab, and it has never been so.

Here's hoping the graphics team someday sees fit to pin this stuff down.
