Re: Export display as eps

[Heiko Klein <Heiko.Klein@xxxxxx>]

I also intend to export visad figures as eps-graphics. I haven't done so 
with visad yet, but with other graphical java-packages.

There is a nice eps-graphics package available at 
http://www.jibble.org/epsgraphics/ . which is a Graphics2D 
implementation for eps-files. It will only work with the Java2D 
implementation of visad.

I haven't dived into visad to give the solution, but the general idea is 
to print the visad-java2d-canvas (whatever the 2D component is?) to the 
epsgraphics:

    public String epsString(VisadCanvas2D vc2d, Dimension dimension) {
        EpsGraphics2D g = new EpsGraphics2D();
        vc2d.draw(g,dimension,null, null);
        return g.toString();
    }

Just an idea, please let me know if it works,

Heiko
