pgplotwidget.postscript - Function



Package display
Module plotter
Tool pgplotwidget


Save the plot as a PostScript file


Synopsis
postscript(file, color, landscape)


Description
This function saves the plot as a postscript file. Basically it changes the device to a PostScript device and then does a refresh, so any commands that have not been recorded will not be plotted. If the file already exists (and is writable), it will be overwritten without any request for confirmation.

By default it writes in landscape orientation and color PostScript, but these can be changed to portrait and BW respectively.



Arguments

file   file name
    Allowed: string
    Default: aipsplot.ps
color   write in color postscript?
    Allowed: boolean
    Default: T
landscape   write landscape?
    Allowed: boolean
    Default: T


Returns
T or fail (e.g., file not writable)
