how to export figure to completely vector format with patch plot?

I need to export my figure to vector format for publishing, but it is a probelem that the figure, which is vector format in screen, convert to raster format.

I have tried to use following methods.

1. print(h_fig, '-painters', '-dpdf', 'print_painters.pdf')
2. export_fig exp_painters.pdf -painters
3. export_fig exp_q.pdf -q101Expert_fig

There is the shortcut figure for above.

Unfortunately， the problem is still exist. It may be a question in here:

```

% p = patch(X,Y,f,'EdgeColor','none','LineStyle','-');

p = patch(X,Y,f);

% shading interp

% S.FaceVertexCData = [0;0;0;0];

% set(p,'LineStyle','none:')

set(p,'EdgeColor','none')

```

Thanks in advance !

Hi,

There is a MATLAB File exchange function “export_fig” submitted here that might be of help to you.

Hope this helps!
