[Gnuplot-info] [gnuplot-info] Unable to output as pdf format on Mac

[Shuai W. <wan...@gm...>]

Hello list,

I am trying to use gnuplot to produce pdf figures on my mac. Here is the
configurations:

gnuplot: version 5.0
os:      OS X EI Capitan Version 10.11.6I installed the gnuplot with

brew install gnuplot --with-x11

But when I tried to produce figures with

set term pdf
....
....

I will receive the errors about the undefined pdf format.

Actually when I try to print out all the supported format of gnuplot:

$ gnuplot
> set term
....

I cannot find the pdf format in the list of supported formats.

Here is my question, how can I use set term pdf with gnuplot on the mac? It
is always workable on my Linux machines...

Am I clear enough? Thank you a lot for the help!

Sincerely,

Shuai
