Description Adrien Cordonnier 2009-06-19 13:01:01 UTC
Version:           0.8 (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

3D graphics can be exported as PNG images. Such images are raster graphics. The quality depends on the resolution which is limited by the screen.

Export to vector graphics such as PS and PDF should be available to get good quality graphics independently of the screen resolution.

gl2ps may be a solution. It can export vector PS and PDF images from OpenGL: http://www.geuz.org/gl2ps/

I suppose it would be a good idea, I don't have the time for such feature right now.
