Axis exponent missing when using exportgraphics to export figure in pdf vector format (or image)
Hi,
When I use exportgraphics to export a figure in pdf vector graphics format (or even image formats such as .png, .tiff), any axis exponents from the figure are missing in the output export file. For my application, I need to export the figure in vector format.
Example code to generate figure:
fig1 = figure(1);
plot(rand(10,1)*10^-5)
exportgraphics(fig1,’testMissingAxisExponent01.pdf’,’ContentType’,’vector’);
Example figure exported by using ‘Save As’ in MATLAB figure GUI (which properly shows the axis exponent):
Example figure generated from exportgraphics (with the missing axis exponent):
I first discovered this issue when working with plots in nested tiles using tiledlayouts and tried increasing the padding with no success. However, this issue seems to be related to exportgraphics.
Any solutions or workarounds? Thank you!Hi,
