Hello, This is a question mostly for non-Latex users. What is your preferred saving format from matplotlib that you use in OpenOffice or a similar open office tool? A format that looks good on both screen and printed output. In my experiences so far I have found getting the best quality outputs from PDF files (using the highest quality settings in matplotlibrc). It wins over eps, ps, and png outputs both on screen and printed texts. I was able to get somewhat good looking results from eps files. However never managed to get them looking pretty on screen -neither when I imported them in OpenOffice Writer as image objects nor in print-outs. This defeats my purpose since they should look good on screen in ODF files because my writings will be reviewed by other people. (EPS files looks non-readable in ODF files) PDF files are easiest to create -- I exactly get what I see on screen. EPS and PS always seems different --requiring plotting setup I suppose. PDF files are better, but my OpenOffice Writer 3.1.1 can't import them as image objects :( --although the Impress tool can do and looks shiny beautiful. PNG's both work in Writer and Impress even though they don't look as good as PDF files --due to their rasterized nature get some blurriness and lose some quality when I re-size them. Enough story from me. Do you have any suggestions/comments for these issues --besides switching to Latex :) What are your preferred ways of using plots in non-Latex editors? Thank you. Gökhan |

Gökhan, I like to use png files at 300dpi. I’m stuck using MS Word 2007 at work, and that’s what works best in my experience. If MS ever starts to support svg files… -paul h.

Hi Paul, I usually use dpi=100. We have lots of MS Office users here and I don't want to use a file format where they can't easily access my documents. It's always easier to get reviews following their format. I plan to write in OpenOffice and later convert the text to MS Office format. There is still some inter-operability in between these formats.

No, it comes with problems --especially in equation transformation. I mostly work on Linux (Fedora 12). I get MS Office 2007 installed through CrossOver, but it has glitches and doesn't look very safe to use for a big project.

I know this started with non-Latex, but I've found that passing around latex-generated PDFs works well to get reviews from non-Latex people. But then again, the people I work with don't rely upon MS Office's electronic editing capabilities.

Hi Ryan, What is your typical reviewing process? Do you ask people to review on PDF outputs or via version controlled Latex document? OpenOffice also has a good review system where I can track my/others changes easily.

We have old-stylers as well :) http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ has nice annotation tools for PDF reviewing, and its very fast and it works on Linux through CrossOver (probably would work via wine as well). What type of revision tracking do you use? Treat your documents like code? Google code has in-place commenting option that makes me think that document revisioning would be easier that way (one day when I start using Latex :) ) On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 4:32 PM, Ryan May <rm...@gm...> wrote: > My advisor just writes on a print out of the PDF.
