Build Identifier: 20110505-1223

The "Export Diagram" functionality of Graphity should support EPS figures. This is of particular interest for stakeholders, who like to import Graphiti Diagrams into Microsoft Word.

Reproducible: Always

Would like to target for Juno

Hi Mathias,

there are (free) virtual pdf printers available, that offer broad configuration
for printing pdf/eps etc to a file. Can you live with this solution?

Best, Tim

The virtual printer drivers do not solve the problem of scaling,
they export to eps format but based on a bitmap graphics provided by the
editor.
Currently the diagram can be exported as true vector graphics in SVG format.
Since writing an exporter for EPS would involve some efforts
and duplication of code existent in GMF runtime, we decided to close the bug after discussion
with the reporter.

Closed, as workaround exists
