I have the same problem like Miguel, trying to make some "nice-looking"
graphic presentations from GSAS results.
In GSAS there is a nicely routine, called "HSTDMP" which transfers all plot
data in an ASCII file format. Next step could be if someone can make a
simple converting code, that can order these data in a standard XY format.
Thus, a common Windows graphic routines, such as Sigma Plot, Origin, MS
Excel etc. can be used for a nice plots.
With such converting routine, the data from that GSAS ASCII file may be easy
imported into a five columns spread sheet:
1 column: X-data (2-theta values)
2 column: Peaks positions (marked in 2-theta, and plotted as tasks under
the patterns)
3 column: Y obs
4 column: Y cal
5 column: Difference
I think, if someone can make this conversion routine, it would be highly
appreciate from many Rietveld users. Whoever this person will be, thanks in
advance,
Srebri
