Hi all, I just committed a new extension that can create EPS figures that have both compressed bitmaps and vector graphics. I've been wanting to do this for the past few years! I always hate making very high resolution figures for publication *just* to have the text sharp. This extension can make either a single panel or multi-panel panel with one call. Here are some examples, notice that their file sizes are similar to their JPEG file sizes. Single panel example and figures: http://paste.enzotools.org/show/485/ http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~jwise/DualEPS/example1.eps (56kB) http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~jwise/DualEPS/example1anno.eps (63kB) Multi-panel: http://paste.enzotools.org/show/486/ http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~jwise/DualEPS/example2.eps (142kB) It could use some refinements, but I've pretty pleased with its output! I hope this is useful to many of you. Cheers, John
Hi John, Thanks for this! I can certainly say I will be using it. Do you think this would go well in the docs under the extensions? I'd like to put it out with yt-1.7. I can make a good start from what you've sent and your examples, then maybe hand it off to you for cleaning up? -Matt On Thu, Apr 29, 2010 at 8:08 PM, John Wise <jwise@astro.princeton.edu> wrote:

Hi Matt, No problem! I don't mind it going into v1.7. I think it'd go well in those doc/extensions. Thanks for offering to write the initial docs. I'll happily add / clean anything up afterwards. John On 30 Apr 2010, at 17:05, Matthew Turk wrote:
