FIGUREMAKER - Publication quality figures with matlab

Create publication quality graphics, allowing rgb color scaling, pdf output and correct fontsizes.

You are now following this Submission

figuremaker helps users generate publication quality graphics from
matlab. This code was modified from the exportfig function, available
at http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/727-exportfig
This function is nice in that the font sizes on the exported figure
will agree with the font size of the document the figure is placed
into.

Exportfig was modified to allow rgb color in the exported figure.
Also, export of pdf file format is implemented with help from Oliver
Woodford's export_fig package, available at
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/23629-exportfig

The file format of the output is automatically chosen from the
filename, for example

>> exportfig('filename.pdf')

exports the current figure into pdf format.
