[Paraview] Export snapshots in vectorized format (eps pr pdf)

[Sven Buijssen]

Hi Mohamad,

That's a question that has come up earlier.
Summarizing it is possible to get vector graphics postscript output from 
ParaView, but it is not straight forward, you'll have to compile ParaView 
yourself and there are shortcomings.

You'll find the following thread helpful:

Please also see the shortcomings of relying on vtkGL2PSExporter (with respect to 
text sources aka labels) in the notes of a feature request that's been made a 
few years ago:
