How can I save a PDF without margins

Dear all,

I think since Release 2019b there exists a new save as button, which can be accessed in a figure plot. It is possible to save the figure as a .pdf and it is perfectly cropped.

Although, if a figure is saved, using the command saveas(figure(1), 'name','pdf') the figure has a lot of white space and is not cropped well enough.

Is it possible to access the same "save as" functionality from the command line as seen in the attached picture?

Kind regards

Philipp

Hi,

you can try to use this option:

print('-fillpage','FillPageFigure','-dpdf')

good luck.

Thank you very much for your help.

This doesn't work as intented, since it just scales my figure to an A4.

The nice thing of the button, described on the top, is that it creates a pdf with the format of the corresponding figure.

Kind regards

Hi,

since the version 2020a there exists this command:

exportgraphics(obj,filename)

which I think does exactly what you are looking for.

Kind regards,
