Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Inclusion of modified PDF

[thinkpadT]

hi guys,

i have the following code

Code: Select all

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[bitstream-charter]{mathdesign} %for a much better readable font
\usepackage{pgfplots}

\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}

\begin{document}
  \begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}[
      width=12cm, %the width of the box
      height=8cm, %the height of the box
      xlabel={Distance \lbrack $ mm $\rbrack},
      xmax=28,
      xmin=0,
      ylabel={Intensity \lbrack arb. units \rbrack}, % \lbrack a.u. \rbrack,x
      ymin=0,
      mark=none,
      legend style={
        legend pos=north east,
        font=\tiny,
        draw=none
      } % place the legend box in the right place  at ={(0.85, 0.65)}
    ]
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% call data from%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
      \pgfplotstableread{data.txt}  %see attachment
      \teff     
      \addplot [color = blue, mark=none, smooth, ] table[y=a] from \teff;
      \addlegendentry{Spectrum w/o  filter};
      \addplot [color = red, mark=none, smooth, ] table[y=b] from \teff;
      \addlegendentry{Spectrum with 200 nm Al filter}; each nth point=2
    \end{axis}
  \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Then I edit the PDF file with Foxit Reader (see attachment), but by including the PDF via doesn't show the editing done with Foxit!

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}
  \centering
  \includegraphics{}
  \end{figure}

Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance

No need for editing the PDF output here. You can do it all with pgfplots. The output is attached.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{standalone}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\usepackage{siunitx}

\pgfplotsset{
  compat=newest,
  xlabel near ticks,
  ylabel near ticks
}

\begin{document}
  \begin{tikzpicture}[font=\small]
    \begin{axis}[
      width=12cm,
      height=8cm,
      xmax=28,
      xmin=0,
      xlabel={Distance [\si{\mm}]},
      ymin=0,
      ylabel={Intensity [arb. units]},
      mark=none,
      legend style={
        font=\tiny,
        legend cell align=left,
        legend pos=north east,
        draw=none
      }
    ]
      \pgfplotstableread{data.txt}
      \teff     
      \addplot[blue,mark=none,smooth] table[y=a] from \teff;
      \draw (axis cs:3.441,239.714) node[above,font=\footnotesize] {0-th order};
      \draw (axis cs:11.4885,70.0551) node[above,font=\footnotesize] {1};
      \draw (axis cs:12.2655,177.0355) node[above,font=\footnotesize] {2};

      \draw (axis cs:15.873,246.2327) node[above,font=\footnotesize] {5};

      \addlegendentry{Without filter};
      \addplot[color=red,mark=none,smooth] table[y=b] from \teff;
      \addlegendentry{With \SI{200}{\nm} Al filter}; each nth point=2
    \end{axis}
  \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

thanks localghost,

i have used this method previously and this is very nice for presentation slides. But if you have loads of spectra this method is not very efficient i.e. time consuming. Thats why i use the direct editing via foxit.
At the moment i do export the pdf edited to png or jpeg which is working but i am not totally satisfied with the outcome.

further suggestion are still welcome

thanks
