[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55906] emf format no longer works for printing

[Dmitri A. Sergatskov]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #55906 (project octave):

Why do we need to go through fig2dev? pstoedit supports emf.
I also noticed this:


octave:3> plot(1:10)
octave:4> print teps.eps
octave:5> print tpdf.pdf
octave:6> print -svgconvert tpdf2.pdf


and then

tpdf2.emf is attached. Looks decent.
