Description-en: script driven business graphics library
libploticus is not a function or mathematical plotting package like
gnuplot, nor would it be a good choice for applications where
mathematical formulas or scientific notations are to be rendered
as an integral part of the data display. libploticus is also not
intended as a "marketing" graphics package. Its goal is to
display data crisply without extra decoration and distracting
"dingbats" that cloud the picture.
.
libploticus supports a wide range of output options, including jpeg
(Joint Photographics Experts Group format), png (Portable Network
Graphics format), svg (Simple Vector Graphics), bmp (Microsoft BitMaP),
ps (PostScript), swf (Flash), and X11.
