Today, Id like to highlight an entry that I mentioned during one of the customer trainings I gave a few months ago.

Its from one of our regular MATLAB Central (and MATLAB) user, Oliver, whom many of you may know.

The print function has an option for exporting a figure as a single-page PDF.

It also has an option for exporting multi-page PostScript files.

So all you need to do is convert the multi-page PostScript file to a PDF.

The initial solution I provided was to use an external program, like Ghostscript, to do the conversion.

This is actually how Ive always done this back when I was in grad school.

Just having learned about automation in the training, the attendee wanted to automate this process in MATLAB.

Im sure its possible, I thought, but I went straight to the File Exchange.

You still do need to install Ghostscript separately, but once you do that, the tool seemed to automatically find it and use it to combine multiple PDFs.

Oliver mentions that the one in exportfig is the maintained version, so I suggest downloading exportfig.

I do want to put a plug in for Multiple Page PDF by James Herman and ps2pdf by Richard Quist.

They both use ghostscript that comes with MATLAB, so you dont need to install anything additional.

Comments Give this a try and let us know what you think here or leave a comment for Oliver.
