Unlocking LaTeX Graphics: A Concise Guide to TikZ/PGF and PGFPLOTS
Do you want to produce high-quality figures for your LaTeX technical documents? Then TikZ/PGF and PGFPLOTS are the right tools for you, and this book will enable you to get quickly up to speed. TikZ/PGF draws complex mathematical and technical diagrams, and PGFPLOTS renders line, scatter, and bar plots for scientific data visualization. TikZ/PGF and PGFPLOTS graphics compile right along with your LaTeX document. This book boils down 1,800 pages of documentation to focus on the 10 percent of TikZ/PGF and PGFPLOTS commands that users need 90 percent of the time, building up from fundamentals and digestible in a few hours. It also serves as a self-contained reference for most common operations, listing each command with all of the relevant key/value options in one place. The author has been grappling with TikZ/PGF and PGFPLOTS for more than 15 years for her own papers. She holds a Ph.D. in applied mathematics and is a Fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and a Member of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE).
