<tmdoc-title|Export or Copy selection to graphics>
|
|
|
|
<TeXmacs> can export the active selection to many graphical formats, either
|
|
as files (<menu|File|Export|Export selection as image>) or through the
|
|
system clipboard (<menu|Edit|Copy to...|Image>), for pasting into other
|
|
applications.\
|
|
|
|
<paragraph|Specifying graphics format> \
|
|
|
|
In case of file export, the desired graphical format is determined by the
|
|
file extension you choose (for instance: pdf, eps, jpg...).
|
|
|
|
For the clipboard mechanism, you need to set in advance the desired format
|
|
in <menu|Edit|Preferences|Converters|TeXmacs -\<gtr\> image|Clipboard image
|
|
format>. This menu offers a choice between <acronym|png>, <acronym|jpeg>,
|
|
<acronym|tif,> <acronym|eps,> <acronym|svg> and <name|pdf> formats,
|
|
provided a suitable converter is available (see below).
|
|
|
|
For both the clipboard mechanism and file export, the resolution of bitmap
|
|
formats is set by the preference <menu|Edit|Preferences|Converters|TeXmacs
|
|
-\<gtr\> image|Bitmap export resolution (dpi)>.
|
|
|
|
When \ <acronym|Svg> format is selected, <TeXmacs> annotates the image with
|
|
the source information for the image's content. When inserted in
|
|
<name|Inkscape> or <name|Libreoffice> documents, such images can easily be
|
|
re-edited using the <hlink|<name|Equation editor>
|
|
plugin|../../../plugins/equation-editor/doc/equation-editor.en.tm>.\
|
|
|
|
<paragraph|Required external converters><label|external converters>
|
|
|
|
<TeXmacs> can natively produce PDF vector images.\
|
|
|
|
In order to produce the various other graphic formats, <TeXmacs> relies on
|
|
various libraries or external programs, notably :\
|
|
|
|
<\itemize-dot>
|
|
<item><name|<name|Qt>>,
|
|
|
|
<item><name|Ghostscript>,
|
|
|
|
<item><name|pdf2svg>, for <acronym|Svg> output,
|
|
|
|
<item><name|pdftocairo> (from the <name|Poppler> project) can can produce
|
|
both vector (<acronym|svg>) and raster formats \ (<acronym|png><name|>,
|
|
<acronym|jpg>),
|
|
|
|
<item><name|ImageMagick>, for raster formats.
|
|
</itemize-dot>
|
|
|
|
Several of these converters are accessed through <scheme> <code*|converter>
|
|
procedures (defined in <verbatim|$TEXMACS_PATH/progs/convert/images/init-images.scm>).
|
|
<hlink|Additional converters|new/man-newconv.en.tm> can be similarly
|
|
defined, when needed.\
|
|
|
|
When attempting a conversion, <TeXmacs> looks for suitable external
|
|
programs in the system PATH, and if none is found, it displays an error
|
|
message. On <name|Linux> if these external programs are not already
|
|
installed, they are easy to install from your distribution's package
|
|
manager. On <name|MacOS>, <name|pdf2svg> and <name|ImageMagick> (as well as
|
|
<name|Inkscape>) are available from <name|MacPorts>. On <name|Windows>,
|
|
<name|pdftocairo> can be obtained <hlink|from
|
|
here|https://github.com/oschwartz10612/poppler-windows>, or you can get
|
|
<hlink|it bundled with <TeXmacs>|https://github.com/slowphil/mingw-w64-texmacs/releases>.
