GrafXporter ----------- GrafXporter is a palette with which one can save any single cell or cell group as an EPS, GIF, or JPEG graphic by simply clicking a button. This works for any type of cell, regardless of its contents. To save multiple cells, the cells must be within a single cell group. Options and Parameters EPS: You can save as EPS either with or without a TIFF preview. The default is without. GIF: The parameter TransparentColor can be used to define a transparent color for GIFs. For example, TransparentColor := GrayLevel[1] makes white transparent. GIFs are created without interlacing and without color dithering. Resolution can be changed with the dpi parameter. The default value is 72. JPEG: Eight JPEGQuality buttons allow you to choose between ImageQuality -> 50, 60, 67, 75, 83, 90, 95, or 100. You can also define the JPEGQuality parameter manually to any value between 0 and 100. (The default is 75.) As with GIFs, resolution can be changed with the dpi parameter. File names are generated automatically with Date[]. For example, 912173056.jpg would be generated on Sept 12 at time 17:30:56. You can also specify a starting string with the FileNameStart parameter. Additional buttons let you specify whether or not to include cell brackets and cell labels. By default, they are not included. Possible Issues I have noticed that text sometimes spills over the right edge when the screen style environment is Printout and cell brackets are not included. This may be a platform dependent problem. An easy work-around is to include cell brackets. ------------------------------------- Selwyn Hollis slhollis@earthlink.net -------------------------------------
