How do I use exportgraphics function to save anova2 table in pdf?

SwAnova = anova2(SwingAandV,1);

exportgraphics(figure(1),"PlotsnCharts.pdf")

I am confused as to how I would word this to save an anova table or if it is even possible for tables so I can save multiple figures at once.

Hi Jared,

I understand that you want to export your anova2 table into a pdf file. Additionally, you also want to export multiple such tables at once in a single pdf.

It can be done in the following manner:

1. Create a figure that would be used by the “uitable” function as parent to create the GUI table using the “anova2” table data. You can refer to the below documentation to know more about the “uitable” function:

- Create table user interface component - MATLAB uitable - MathWorks India

2. After the creation of this figure, use the “print” function to capture this figure handle as an image. You can refer to the below documentation to know more about the “print” function:

- Print figure or save to specific file format - MATLAB print - MathWorks India

Here is a sample code for your reference:

% Capture the table as an image 
tableImage = print(gcf, '-RGBImage'); 

3. Create a new figure to capture the image using the “imshow” function

created from the anova2 table. You can refer to the below documentation to know more about the “imshow” function:

- Display image - MATLAB imshow - MathWorks India

Here is a sample code for your reference:

% Create a new figure for the table image 
figure(2) 
imshow(tableImage) 

4. Use the “exportgraphics” function to save the figure containing the image i.e. “figure(2)”.

5. To export multiple such figures, you can iterate over each anova2 table data to capture them as image and then saving these image figures into a pdf. The “append” property of the “exportgraphics” functions needs to be set “true” to save multiple figures in a single pdf.

Hope it helps,
