Saving in various graphics formats (e.g. PNG, EMF, JPG, etc.)

JAS3 supports various graphics formats, for both bitmap and vector graphics.

The following list gives a brief description of the most often used formats

titleGraphics Formats

PNG

Portable Network Graphics

We recommend this format as the default bitmap format. PNG files are compressed and can be used for inclusion in presentations.

EPS

Encapsulated PostScript

For inclusion in printed documents, the EPS format is preferred. This is an uncompressed format, so EPS files are usually much larger than their compressed counterparts. (Up to a factor of 10 or more)

PS

PostScript

Select this format if you want a document-quality printout of your plot. Uncompressed. This option should be used with care, because the PS format contains information about the page layout. The JAS3 PS format is letter-height and A4-width.

SVG

Scalable Vector Graphics

Like the EPS format, SVG is a vector graphics format
