Dear all,
I'd like to export a paraview vector field plot into a vectorial image
format (e.g. eps) to generate high quality images which are not huge
in size for publication purposes.
I already compiled paraview 3.10 with gl2ps=on. So according to old
messages in the email list I should be able to
Sorry, ParaView doesn't have true vector graphics output. Please add
your vote to the existing user voice request for it.

You might try to run the script below to see if your image quality is good
enough to use vtkGL2PSExporter
rw=GetActiveView().GetRenderWindow()
exp=paraview.vtk.vtkInstantiator.CreateInstance('vtkGL2PSExporter')
exp.SetRenderWindow(rw)
exp.SetDrawBackground(0)
exp.SetSortToSimple()

Hi,
I happen to have a small patch for the git master branch that adds vector
graphics output (EPS, PS and SVG) to the Save Screenshot dialog and uses
vtkGL2PSExporter as a backend, too. Actually, it's just an updated version of
the patch for this matter I posted on this list back in 2007. But as

Despite the limitations, would you please push that patch to github?
Once there distribution, upkeep and maintenance will be easier.

Apparently Paraview does not generate vectorial images at the moment.
Would it be possible to generate such an image by first exporting to a
3D format (like POV or X3D) and then converting the scene to a
vectorial format using another application? any suggestion ...?
Best,
Nima

Sven,
Could you please give me instruction on how to use of your patch in order to
export vector images?
Thanks,
Nima

I've just pushed Sven's patches to github.
You can git clone from:
https://github.com/demarle/ParaView/branches/vector-graphics-export
To get it.
And then build from source.
When you do, turn on VTK_USE_GL2PS in cmake.
Once built, save screen shot will have new ps, eps and svg vector
graphic for
Please keep discussions on the mailing list so everyone can contribute
and benefit.
Sorry I assumed git clone would obtain a particular branch from a url
directly, so my instructions were not detailed enough.
Try this command instead:
git clone --recursive -b vector-graphics-export

In case you prefer using ParaView 3.10.1 and not the development version, here's
a recipe to backport the patches (which are intended for the development version
after the Collaboration branch merge) to 3.10.1. (To avoid confusion w.r.t.
