Even the browser can read SVG file (somewhat - the

If you're fortunate enough to be using the wx backend, there is a
Copy_to_Clipboard() method which works great: In a wx App, Ctrl-C can
easily be bound to copy the figure to the clipboard, then paste it

My advice would be to define
the size you'll want the figure to be on paper once printed, and set the
resolution to 300 dpi (for paper) or 1
to Windows but I am not complaining.
Thanks, Fernando.

This part should be achievable with PNG.
Just set the figsize.

Try inkscape. I've used it successfully for simple things, though
