3.1.0.18 emf
The `emf` terminal generates an Enhanced Metafile Format file. This file format is recognized by many Windows applications.
Syntax:
set terminal emf {color | monochrome} {solid | dashed} {enhanced {noproportional}} {linewidth <LW>} {dashlength <DL>} {size XX,YY} {"<fontname>"} {<fontsize>} #old syntax {font "<fontname>,<fontsize>"} #new syntax |
In `monochrome` mode successive line types cycle through dash patterns. In `color` mode successive line types use successive colors, and only after all 8 default colors are exhausted is the dash pattern incremented. `solid` draws all curves with solid lines, overriding any dashed patterns; `linewidth <factor>` multiplies all line widths by this factor. `dashlength <factor>` is useful for thick lines. <font> is the name of a font; and `<fontsize>` is the size of the font in points.
The nominal size of the output image defaults to 1024x768 in arbitrary units. You may specify a different nominal size using the size option.
Enhanced text mode tries to approximate proportional character spacing. If you are using a monospaced font, or don't like the approximation, you can turn off this correction using the `noproportional` option.
The default settings are `color dashed font "Arial,12" size 1024,768` Selecting `default` sets all options to their default values.
Examples:
set terminal emf 'Times Roman Italic' 12 set terminal emf color solid # no pesky dashes!" |
