PRINT GRAPHICS

Output current screen graphics to a PostScript file. The first time PRINT GRAPHICS is used it will prompt for the name of an output file. Subsequent commands will send the graphics to the same file, unless an END GRAPHICS FILE command is issued to close the file (See END GRAPHICS FILE, Section 15.31, Page ). (For graphics to be included in L^ATEX documents only one graphic per file is presently suitable.)

Further PRINT GRAPHICS commands will add new ``pages'' to the existing file.

After exiting FIT2D the files can be set to any PostScript printer or may be viewed using a PostScript previewer such as ghostview. FIT2D will produce colour Postscript if colour has been used on the screen. The file can be sent to a colour printer, or to a black and white printer in which case the colours will be converted to a grey-scale.

The user can name the files as they want, but I suggest you always use the ``file extension'' .ps to distinguish the files.

Beware: PostScript files can be large, so after printing it is recommended to delete the unnecessary files.
