PostScript Drawing

An Economist’s Guide

Alan G. Isaac

American University, aisaac{at}american.edu

Economists like to support their theoretical arguments with drawings. When these drawings are intended to illustrate very precise geometrical relationships, the PostScript page description language is often an appropriate drawing tool. PostScript is an easy-to-learn, powerful, flexible tool for drawing. A few quick lines of PostScript can often replace the frustrating experimentation or tedious repetition required by a point-and-click environment. This article is an economist’s introduction to PostScript drawing.

Key Words: economic illustration • economic graphics • PostScript
