MATLAB Simulink prints too large to PDF #9

Closed skhnat closed 9 years ago

skhnat commented 9 years ago

Not sure how to remove white space around the Simulink model when MATLAB prints to PDF.

moorepants commented 9 years ago

I didn't even know you could print a pdf for the simulink model.

There are some tools to crop pdfs if you want to do that. You could probably open it in inkscape and then set the figure size, and then export as pdf.

This probably isn't worth worrying about. I typically frown on addng simulink diagrams to papers anyways, as is similar to pasting in a bunch of code. The diagrams rarely add to the understanding and they are unlikely to be reproduced anyways. It is better just to include the mdl file in the supplementary material.

If you want to actually draw your own block diagram that would be much more preferable. But we may not need this diagram at all. You can likely explain the block diagram in one to two sentences in the text and that will be fully sufficient for the reader.

That's okay. We don't need to include it. It's not that complicated of a diagram anyway.
