Area plot is not exporting high quality figure

Question

0 个投票

I am trying to draw two area graph from timeseries variable stored in workspace. But the quality of the figure I am getting is not so good as that of plot graph. The quality of the output figure is very good if I use plot command instead of area command. Is there any way to get the same high quality figure for the area graph too??

I have tried to export as svg, emf, tif, pdf to use with 'Word'.

subplot(2,1,1)
% plot(P.time, P.data,'linewidth',2)  % gives high quality figure output
area(P.time, P.data,'linewidth',2)    % doesn't give high quality figure output
hold on
area(Pd123.time, Pd123.data,'linewidth',2);
subplot(2,1,2)
plot(I.time, I.data, 'linewidth', 1.3)
hold on
plot(Id123.time, Id123.data, 'linewidth', 1.3);

plot() would be vector graphics. area() uses patches, which are surface graphics, which would be rasterized for everything other than possibly svg() or pdf(). In practice it would probably be rasterized for pdf() as well.
