__NOTOC__ PGF/Ti''k''Z is a tandem of languages for producing vector graphics from a geometric/algebraic description. PGF is a lower-level language, while Ti''k''Z is a set of higher-level macros that use PGF. The top-level PGF and Ti''k''Z commands are invoked as TeX macros, but in contrast with PSTricks, the PGF/Ti''k''Z graphics themselves are described in a language that resembles MetaPost. Till Tantau is the designer of these languages, and he is also the main developer of the only known interpreter for PGF and Ti''k''Z, which is written in TeX. PGF is an acronym for "Portable Graphics Format". Ti''k''Z was introduced in version 1.10 of PGF, and it is a recursive acronym for "Ti''k''Z ist ''kein'' Zeichenprogramm" (German for "Ti''k''Z is ''not'' a drawing program"). The PGF/Ti''k''Z interpreter can be used from the popular LaTeX and ConTeXt macro packages, and also directly from the original TeX. Since TeX itself is not concerned with graphics, the interpreter supports multiple TeX output backends: dvips, dvipdfm/dvipdfmx/xdvipdfmx, TeX4ht, and pdftex's internal PDF output driver. Unlike PStricks, PGF can thus directly produce either PostScript or PDF output, but it cannot use some of the more advanced PostScript programming features that PStricks can use due to the "least common denominator" effect. PGF/Ti''k''Z comes with extensive documentation. The version 3.0.0 manual has 1165 pages. The standard LaTeX picture environment can also be used as a front end for PGF merely by using the pgfpict2e package.Several graphical editors can produce output for PGF/Ti''k''Z like the KDE program Cirkuit,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Cirkuit )〕 and the math drawing program GeoGebra. Export to Ti''k''Z is also available as extensions for Inkscape, Blender,〔http://www.fauskes.net/code/blend2tikz/〕 MATLAB,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 matlab2tikz )〕 matplotlib,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 matplotlib2tikz )〕 Gnuplot and R. The project has been under constant development since 2005. Most of the development is done by Till Tantau.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 TikZ and PGF builds )〕 Version 3.0.0 was released on 2013-12-20. One of the major new features is graph drawing using the graphdrawing package, which however requires LuaTeX.〔; see also the older (GD 2012 presentation )〕 This version also added a new data visualization method and support for direct SVG output via the new dvisvgm driver.〔https://sourceforge.net/projects/pgf/files/pgf/version%203.0.0/〕==See also== * Asymptote (vector graphics language) * PSTricks * MetaPost * GeoGebra, free dynamic mathematics program with PGF/Ti''k''Z export 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「PGF/TikZ」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
