If it is encapsulated postscript you want, then this would be done using one of the following .cdsplotinit entries:

Code:

EPS|Encapsulated Postscript: \
:manufacturer=Adobe: \
:type=epsf: \
:maximumPages#1: \
:resolution#600: \
:residentFonts: \
:paperSize="A4" 4758 6846 90 90: \
:paperSize="A3" 6846 9720 90 90: \
:paperSize="Unlimited" 72000 72000:
EPS Colour|Encapsulated Postscript: \
:manufacturer=Adobe: \
:type=epsfC: \
:maximumPages#1: \
:resolution#600: \
:residentFonts: \
:paperSize="A4" 4758 6846 90 90: \
:paperSize="A3" 6846 9720 90 90: \
:paperSize="Unlimited" 72000 72000:
EPS Colour TIFF|Encapsulated Postscript: \
:manufacturer=Adobe: \
:type=epsfiC: \
:EPSPreviewType=TIFF:\
:maximumPages#1: \
:resolution#600: \
:residentFonts: \
:paperSize="A4" 4758 6846 90 90:\
:paperSize="A3" 6846 9720 90 90:\
:paperSize="Unlimited" 72000 72000:
Encapsulated PostScript TIFF preview |Encapsulated PostScript: \
:manufacturer=Adobe: \
:type=epsfi: \
:EPSPreviewType=TIFF: \
:resolution#300: \
:maximumPages#1: \
:paperSize="A4" 4400 6600 350 250: \
:paperSize="5x5 inches" 1500 1500: \
:paperSize="8x8 inches" 2400 2400:

The entries with type set to epsfC or epsfiC would be colour. The "i" in the name means there is a preview image, and the magic incantation :EPSPreviewType=TIFF: means that the preview image will be in TIFF format, which has the advantage of meaning that if you include the EPS file in Word, you can see the TIFF preview image on the screen (but when you print to a PostScript printer, it will use the actual PostScript).

If it is a real printer you want to send to, rather than EPS, then use :type=postscript2: rather than postscript1. postscript2 gives you colour output.

Regards,

Andrew.

I also meant to say that the newer wavescan tool has a tab Appearance on the File->Print form which can be used to select whether the plot is colour or black and white. It also has the File->Save As Image menu to allow you to save bmp, png, or tiff directly from the waveform tool.
