Graphic images

[Stefan Du Rietz]

I have tried to make image files of graphic windows in 
Scilab 4.1.2 (Win XP).

-->xs2gif(0, filename+".gif")

works (creates a GIF-file of figure 0), but the y_label is 
wrong: The text line but not each letter is rotated -270 
degrees. Apart from this everything is OK.

-->xs2ps(0, filename+".ps")

also works, but I cannot open the PS-file in my PostScript 
program GSview (lots of errors). I understand that I have to 
do something more with the file but have not been able to 
manage it...

If (from the graphic window menu) I choose

1. File - Export - Export type: Postscript

I can open the resulting EPS-file in GSview but the 
proportions of the axes are changed and the y_label is 
partly outside the "paper".

2. File - Copy to clipboard - Bitmap

and paste it in a GIMP image of the same size, the 
positions of all labels and tick_labels are wrong (and the 
image therefore useless)!

All this worked in Matlab. There it was also possible to set 
the 'PaperPosition' of the figure. Is there anything like it 
in Scilab?

I would be very happy if anyone could tell me how to manage 
this!

Stefan
