Hi,
I want to prepare some surf images in eps format to insert in a latex
document.
 I need very high quality pictures, which is the best way to do it by
using the matlab print comand? Is it matter of the choice of -zbuffer
option? Can I manage also the Dots-per-inch resolution?

Thank you for your help 
Antonio

if you chose an .eps format as an output, it is going to be the highest
resolution since it is a vectoriel format (you can zoom as much as you
want without loosing in resolution).
Have a look at the Laprint command (google) and you'll get what you
want.

Hi,

If you select "painters" and print to pdf (or eps) you should get a
vector rendition of the surf. It will be large, and it will take a
while (if you have many polygons) but it will look beautiful.

I've been doing that recently. The cons are

1. Transparency doesn't work
2. Gouraud or Phong shading doesn't work (each polygon is one shade)
3. Even hidden polygons are drawn (they are still hidden, so the
picture is fine but this increases size)


hope that helps
