[Paraview] vtkGL2PSExporter issues

[Peter Brady]

Hello all,

I've managed to get paraview to write out eps data via the python
interface using the vtkGL2PSExporter.  But now I appear to have some
other issues.

1.  The files are very large.  If I turn the Compress option on they
are small but then I am unable to read them.  Any thoughts?

2.  The quality is not particularly good.  I've tried playing with all
the options that the vtkGL2PSExporter has but none of them seem to
generate a high quality picture.  (I'm doing a 2D contour plot and the
resulting eps image is quite pixelly).  Anyone know how to fix this?

3.  My black contours show up.  My gray contours show up.  But if I do
a gray scale, even though the contours show up nicely in the rendering
window, they are not present in the eps image.  (Although I'm pretty
sure they do get written to the eps file since it is approx 5MB, which
is quite large for a blank image).  Is there a way for me to set the
color scale in the exporter so everything shows up?

If anyone has experienced similar issues and has some thoughts or
suggestions, I would be very interested to hear them.

Thanks,
Peter.
