Generating a pdf file using Matlab

Sir, I need to generate a pdf file of my report using MATlab. I am able to generate a .doc report from Matlab but I to make it non-editable I need to convert it to .pdf format & this needs to be done directly from MAtlab. So please show some way.

You can use Adobe PDF printer to print the PDFs you want.

How did you generate the .doc file? Are you using the MATLAB Report Generator Toolbox? If you do, .pdf file is supported.

no, I am not using MATLAB Report Generator Toolbox. I'm just generating report by using 'fopen' and 'fprintf' command.So how may i convert this generated report into pdf..??

If you are using fopen() and fprintf(), how do you "generate a .doc report from Matlab"? Anyway, if you don't have Adobe Writer, you can download the free pdf995 driver at http://www.pdf995.com/. Then you'll have a virtual printer which enables you to create .pdf file from any application that can do print.

Put your script into cells. In each cell add a line to print to screen/output a plot. (disp, plot, etc.) - No need for fopen etc.

publish your script to pdf.
