SAVE2PDF saves a figure as a PDF as it appears on the screen. SAVE2PDF is stand-alone and simple--it does not require a separate installation of ghostscript. It saves figures as they appear on the screen, with the correct page size. It has the option to change the resolution to be print-quality.

SAVE2PDF is particularly useful for LaTex users who want to generate PDFs to include when compiling with pdftex. The vector art information is preserved.

This function simply augments the built in print-to-pdf functionality of Matlab by resizing the output PDF and shifting the displayed plot.
