 $ gnuplot
 gnuplot> set terminal

The usual Linux TrueType fonts are also made available, type

 $ gnuplot
 gnuplot> show fontpath

to list the default font search path. TrueType fonts within a font path directory might be specified by using the file name without the .ttf, .pfa or .pfb extensions.

 

The image below is the last demo sample on Gnuplot PM3D hidden surface removal demo, with PNG output. It is generated on njord with this gnuplot script. The image could also be saved to a PDF file, by changing terminal type and output file name, similar to what is done in this gnuplot script. The script PDF output is avaiable here.
