export_fig producing empty files with new version

[dwh29]

I uploaded the latest version of export_fig, but changed nothing else. Now the pdf produced is empty. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I have pasted in the .m file, but I don't think this is the problem. All was fine with the older version of export_fig.

Here is the file concerned:

% Here we plot Ra_c versus Rs at fixed Ct, tau and sigma in first quadrant
% to produce one of the JFM figures (figure 4).
% The data has been produced already and
% is saved in JFM_fig4_data.mat, so this is just a bunch of plotting
% routines.

loyolagreen = 1/255*[0,104,87];
loyolagray = 1/255*[200,200,200];
orange = 1/255*[25,165,0];
pink = 1/255*[255,20,147];

Possibly the same as #318. Try the workarounds mentioned there -- if you haven't already.

Thanks for this. I'll give it a try.

I cannot reproduce on my end so I'm closing the issue. If you wish to reopen, please provide a working code snippet (the one above fails because no data was attached, a simple few lines of code with synthetic data that reproduce the problem will be best, attaching the complete program is not very helpful...)

Note that the recent commit that fixes issue #318 may also be a solution for this issue

Hello, I am having the same issue, but only with pdf's. I am running Matlab version '9.11.0.1769968 (R2021b)' on MacOS Big Sur version 11.6, with export_fig version 3.19. I have tried using the workaround #318 and it occasionally works, but particularly doesn't like when I'm exporting multiple file types. Can you please help or provide suggestions? Here's some sample code:

x=[1 2 3 4];
y=[1 2 3 4];

plot(x,y)
xlabel('x');ylabel('y');
set(gcf,'position',[50 300 641 489])
set(gca, 'FontName', 'Helvetica')
set(gca,'FontSize',10) % Sets global axis font size to 14
set(gca,'FontWeight','bold') % Sets global axis font weight
set(gca,'Color','White')
set(gcf,'Color','White')
export_fig('testFigSave','-pdf','-p1','-r288')
