Figure printing size and printing in latex

I have multiple of Matlab figures and I need all the figures to have the same size when I save them as Pdf but I can't make them equal, is there a way just to copy the sixe configuration from figure to another. Thanks in advance

A Matlab figure has a 'Position' property which returns a 1-by-4 array. The array elements are ordered like this:

x = array(1); % the x-coordinate of the bottom-left corner

y = array(2); % the y-coordinate of the bottom-left corner

w = array(3); % the width of the figure

h = array(4); % the height of the figure

where, array = get(gcf,'Position'); or get(hFig,'Position');

NB. hFig is the handle (loosely a variable in which the figure object is stored) to the figure.

For more info on figure properties, type "doc figure" (without quotes) on the command window.

What does "I can't make them equal" mean? What did you try and what happens instead of which expectations? How do you save the PDF files?

I go to edit:Figure Prop. then More Prop. After PaperPosition and I set width and height to 650 and 500 (units-points)... but I'm not getting the same size

The same size of what? Remember that the readers do not have the faintest idea about what you are doing.

If you create a PDF, not the 'Position' of the figure matters, but the 'PaperPosition' and 'PaperUnits'.

If you have the handles of all figures in one vector, you can set the properties in one command:

fig(1) = figure;
fig(2) = figure;
...

set(fig, 'PaperUnits', 'cm', 'PaperSize', [10, 15]);

[Diana]

fig(2) = figure; this will open a new figure, how can get the current figure

[Diana]

hi =get(gcf); >> set(hi, 'PaperUnits', 'cm', 'PaperSize', [10, 15]); Error using set Conversion to double from struct is not possible. I tried the bove and gave the above error

@Diana, please change

hi = get(gcf);

to

hi = gcf;
