How to use it well

Create one representative figure with the required axis labels, units, and style before duplicating its structure for related datasets. Link or import data consistently and check exported fonts and line weights. Use scripting when many similar figures are needed, keeping the plotting document and underlying data under the same project organization.

This is best suited to preparing consistent scientific figures. Before committing a larger project, account for these trade-offs: interface has a learning curve; data processing often occurs elsewhere.
