exporting a graph. Example:<br />
aisee -silent -color -scale 75 -psoutput test.ps test.gdl<br />
This example converts the <strong>GDL</strong> file test.gdl into a PostScript file containing a color picture of the<br />
graph scaled by 75%. In this case interactive displaying of the graph is suppressed. If the graph<br />
does not fit on the page, the output shows only part of the graph.<br />
–bmpoutput <br />
A bitmap file named containing a color picture of the graph is written in BMP<br />
format. To export a black and white picture, use -nocolors.<br />
–gdloutput <br />
A <strong>GDL</strong> file named is written which contains the graph rendered in keeping<br />
with the layout calculation. All visible nodes of the graph are annotated by the calculated<br />
coordinates. Most information about folded subgraphs or regions is lost in the <strong>GDL</strong> file<br />
created. Interactive displaying of the graph is turned off.<br />
–htmloutput <br />
An HTML file named is written which contains a picture of the graph in PNG<br />
or BMP format mapped with the hyperlinks and/or JavaScript functionality specified in the<br />
<strong>GDL</strong> source of the graph. This option has no effect unless a file name was specified for the<br />
image by using -pngoutput or -bmpoutput. It should always be used in conjunction<br />
with -lm 0 px and -tm 0 px.<br />
–pbmoutput <br />
A bitmap file named containing a black and white picture of the graph is written<br />
in PBM format.<br />
–pngoutput <br />
A portable network graphics file named is written which contains a color picture<br />
of the graph. The compression factor is 6 : 1. It is advisable to use this option in combination<br />
with -lm 0 px and -tm 0 px.<br />
–ppmoutput <br />
A bitmap file named containing a color picture of the graph is written in PPM<br />
format.<br />
–psoutput <br />
A PostScript file named is written which contains the graph.<br />
–svgoutput <br />
A file named containing a black and white picture of the graph is written in<br />
scalable vector graphics (SVG) format. To export a color picture, use -color.<br />
