Posted on In QAHow to make gnuplot generate eps files instead of plot the figures on screen?
First, save a Gnuplot plot as a PostScript file by this commands:
# gnuplot> load 'saveplot'
# gnuplot> !mv my-plot.ps another-file.ps
The saveplot
file’s content:
set size 1.0, 0.6
set terminal postscript portrait enhanced mono dashed lw 1 "Helvetica" 14
set output "my-plot.ps"
replot

$ ps2epsi another-file.ps another-file.eps
