Generally, I wish to plot a rather complex x-y plot (lots of overlapping curves) to an A3 format so:
A4 210x297
A3 = A4*2 = 420 x 297
... - 10mm each side = 400 x 277 (size of desired plot window)
What is the easiest way to set the size of the plot so it fits that size when printed in PDF (or any other common output format)?
See the matlab documentation for figure properties.
Namely:
PaperSize– Explicitly defines the size of the canvas.PaperType– SetsPaperSizeto one of several standard paper sizes.The built in plot tool lets you save figures as all sorts of image formats so you should be good to go. Fiddling with the above settings should get your figure to be the correct size for printing.
Happy plotting!
