Mathematica Graph Plotting for Scientific Papers

[Luke Tan]

TL;DR

What plot options do you guys use?

Hey guys, so recently I've been trying to use mathematica to plot graphs for my scientific papers, and I've been starting to wonder - what plot options do you guys use?

How do you plot your graphs in mathematica such that they look presentable in a scientific paper?

It depends a lot on the kind of plot. The important things are that the plot most be readable and informative.

What options do you use to make a simple line plot look good?

I use Frame and FrameLabel, for labeling my axes rather than AxesLabel. I also find that the font size is usually too small by default so I typically increase that.
