btw, is SVG supported at all? Now that you mention it that could be a good
option for some plots. I just used pdf earlier for testing but if you just have
a simple
plot as a picture then an image format should be a better choice. I've always
complained about the cost-benefit for pdf compared to alternatives but
if used properly it can be a good choice in some cases ( I think I tried
to explain some objections I had to pdf files on the itext mailing list,
a package which may be of interest to the other poster intereted in
manipulating pdf files).
Use a format beneficial for the type of data you have.
