Exporting to the Clipboard Using MATLAB Commands
To export to the clipboard, do not include the filename argument and use one of the following two clipboard formats: -dbitmap or -dmeta. These switches create a Windows Bitmap (BMP) or a Enhanced Metafile (EMF), respectively.
print -dmeta % Export current figure to clipboard as EMF. print -dbitmap % Export current figure to clipboard as BMP.
These two clipboard formats can also be used for exporting to a file, if desired, but you cannot export to the clipboard using any formats other than -dmeta and -dbitmap. Note that while the -dmeta switch uses a vector format, in some cases MATLAB may create a bitmap file. For more information about working with these formats, see Clipboard Formats.
