[Paraview] Paraview output in a latex document

[Moreland, Kenneth]

When you save an image of a 3D image, it is a raster image regardless whether you save it in pdf.  As such, you are much better off saving as a png file where the resolution is explicit.  You can then convert it (with, for example, ImageMagick) to any format that you chose and keep that resolution.

If you are interested, here are posted a collection of CMake macros that will manage a LaTeX build and convert image formats as necessary.

Hi all,
   I'd like to use paraview images in a latex document. So far, I can
see two options:
1) Save Screeshot as pdf -> works, but I would prefer eps files
2) Save Screeshot in whatever format and convert it to eps -> this
works but the quality of the eps is very bad.

Does anybody have any suggestion? (Linux if possible, but Windows is
also fine).

Thank you in advance!
   Marco
