Hello i have a matlab script making some plots, i would like to save them in A3 size but i don't know how i could do this.

My command for saving is the follow

figure1 = figure;

%create plot

saveas(figure1,'filename.png');

I have also used the following without success

figure1 = figure('PaperType','A3','PaperSize',[29.681205808 41.948713346]);
saveas(figure1,'filename.png');

I would appreciate any help

why would you want to do this(?)...
once it's saved, you can always print a figure any size you want...
that's why we typically save our stuff as a PDF/EPS, eg, posters...

just curious...

Thanks for your answer...my main issue isn't to "print" the plots, but i would like to have "bigger" images for better display. Using a lot of subplots in a figure the output isn't so good for visualization
