Hi,

to capture images I use these commands:

/UI,COPY,SAVE,PNG,GRAPH,COLOR,REVERSE,PORTRAIT,YES
/RENAME,MSU000,PNG,,'%U3%_UZ_0_%T0%_%T1%...

image itself looks good, but the text is unreadable. Problem is with this PNG format. In ansys manual is not documented for use - I only try and it worked. The same problem is with BMP format. No problem is with EMF file - it is very good quality, but I would like to use PNG because its the smalest size (PNG - 60kB, EMF - 300kB, BMP - 1.2MB).
I want perform a nonlinear parametric study with many variables and capture images in each increment of load - I expect up to 50.000 figures so its size is important to me.

I use Ansys 11.0 64-bit.

Any help is appreciated, Thank you.

Lubo

interesting thing is that if I change value from 800 to 600 the text is sharper...
