// An example how to display PS, EPS, PDF files in canvas // To load a PS file in a TCanvas, the ghostscript program needs to be install. // - On most unix systems it is installed by default. // - On Windows it has to be installed from http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ // also the place where gswin32c.exe sits should be added in the PATH. One // way to do it is: // 1. Start the Control Panel // 2. Double click on System // 3, Open the "Advanced" tab // 4. Click on the "Environment Variables" button // 5. Find "Path" in "System varibale list", click on it. // 6. Click on the "Edit" button. // 7. In the "Variable value" field add the path of gswin32c // (after a ";") it should be something like: // "C:\Program Files\gs\gs8.13\bin" // 8. click "OK" as much as needed. // //Author: Valeriy Onoutchin #include "TROOT.h" #include "TCanvas.h" #include "TImage.h" void psview() { // set to batch mode -> do not display graphics gROOT->SetBatch(1); // create a PostScript file gROOT->Macro("feynman.C"); gPad->Print("feynman.eps"); // back to graphics mode gROOT->SetBatch(0); // create an image from PS file TImage *ps = TImage::Open("feynman.eps"); if (!ps) { printf("GhostScript (gs) program must be installed\n"); return; } new TCanvas("psexam", "Example how to display PS file in canvas", 600, 400); TLatex *tex = new TLatex(0.06,0.9,"The picture below has been loaded from a PS file:"); tex->Draw(); TPad *eps = new TPad("eps", "eps", 0., 0., 1., 0.75); eps->Draw(); eps->cd(); ps->Draw("xxx"); }
