graphics - How to speed up TextJustification in Mathematica 10


Based on this question: - Version 7 print environment - I set up two 10 page test documents in version 7.0.1 and version 10.1. The version 7 document exported to PDF in 4.18 seconds whereas the version 10 export took 424.6 seconds.


Can I speed up export from version 10?


These are the test exports.


For Version 7


time = DateList[];
SetOptions[$FrontEndSession,

  PrintingOptions -> {"PrintingMargins" -> {{45, 43}, {17, 31}},
    "FirstPageHeader" -> False, "FirstPageFooter" -> False,
    "RestPagesHeader" -> False, "RestPagesFooter" -> False,
    "Magnification" -> 1}];
text = StringReplace[StringTake[
    ExampleData[{"Text", "Prufrock"}], 4221],
   FromCharacterCode[{195, 162, 128, 194, 153}] -> "'"];
square = Graphics[{Orange, Rectangle[{0, 0}, {70, 70}]},
   PlotRange -> {{0, 70}, {0, 70}}];
column = Table[Inset[square, {415, 100 i}, {Left, Bottom},

    {70, 70}], {i, 0, 9}];
page = Graphics[{White, Rectangle[{0, 0}, {500, 973}], Black,
    Inset[TextCell[text, LineSpacing -> {0, 16},
      TextJustification -> 1], {0, 973}, {Left, Top}, {400, 973}],
    column}, PlotRange -> {{0, 500}, {0, 973}}, ImageSize -> 500, 
   BaseStyle -> {FontFamily -> "Times", FontWeight -> "Plain", FontSize -> 14}];
nb = CreateDocument[ConstantArray[ExpressionCell[page, "Print"], 10],
   WindowSize -> 800];
filename = StringJoin["v", ToString[Round@$VersionNumber], ".pdf"];
Quiet@DeleteFile[filename];

Export[filename, nb];
NotebookClose[nb];
DateDifference[time, DateList[], "Second"]


{4.18004, Second}



For Version 10


time = DateList[];
SetOptions[$FrontEndSession,

  PrintingOptions -> {"PrintingMargins" -> {{11, 43}, {15, 31}},
    "FirstPageHeader" -> False, "FirstPageFooter" -> False,
    "RestPagesHeader" -> False, "RestPagesFooter" -> False,
    "Magnification" -> 1}];
text = StringReplace[StringTake[
    ExampleData[{"Text", "Prufrock"}], 4221],
   FromCharacterCode[{195, 162, 128, 194, 153}] -> "'"];

    column}, PlotRange -> {{0, 500}, {0, 973}}, ImageSize -> 555,
   BaseStyle -> {FontFamily -> "Times", FontWeight -> "Plain", FontSize -> 15.5}];

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

list manipulation - Selecting multiple columns from a matrix?

Sample data: data = { {{2013, 1, 1}, 24.13, 167.67, 231.82}, {{2013, 1, 2}, 32.15, 170.92, 225.99}, {{2013, 1, 3}, 35.43, 172.68, 221.67}, {{2013, 1, 4}, 36.73, 173.05, 218.32}, {{2013, 1, 5}, 58.19, 165.96, 197.05}, {{2013, 1, 6}, 69.99, 163.50, 187.52}, {{2013, 1, 7}, 71.37, 154.21, 175.58}, {{2013, 1, 8}, 72.51, 149.66, 163.25}}; I want a DateListPlot with three graphs, so for a matrix formed by columns 1 and 2, one for columns 1 and 3, and 1 for columns 1 and 4. At the moment I'm using this code: data2 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 2]]}]; data3 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 3]]}]; data4 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 4]]}]; DateListPlot[{data2, data3, data4}, Joined -> True, Filling -> {3 -> {1}}] but I have a hunch that this can be done more efficiently. I don't like the Transpose s in particular. Any ideas? edit (for extra credit) What if I need to multiply the second column by 2, which in my solution is simp...

calculus and analysis - Integral of the Sinc product

Let us consider the following integral $$ B_n = \int_0^\infty \prod_{k=1,3,5,\dots}^n\frac{\sin (x/k)}{x/k}dx $$ By definition, Sinc[x] == Sin[x]/x , therefore B[n_?OddQ] := Integrate[Product[Sinc[x/k], {k, 1, n, 2}], {x, 0, Infinity}] B /@ Range[1, 13, 2] {Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2} OK, everything is fine. But... B[15] 467807924713440738696537864469 Pi/935615849440640907310521750000 What's going on? Answer As Eckhard wrote in comments B[n] is the n-th Borwein integral . (The letter B was not accidental :) ) This funny properties of Borwein integrals is related to the Fourier transform of Sinc function FourierTransform[Sinc[x], x, k] 1/2 Sqrt[Pi/2] (Sign[1 - k] + Sign[1 + k]) Plot[%, {k, -2, 2}, Filling -> 0] which is the box function. The result is $\pi/2$ while the sum $$ 1/3+1/5+\dots+1/n $$ B_n = \frac{\pi}{2} - \pi \bigg(\sum_{k=3,5,\ldots}^n\frac{1}{k} -1\biggr)^\frac{n-1}{2}\prod_{k=3,5,\dots}^n\frac{k}{k-1}. $$ For $n=15$ it is equal to $$ \frac{46780...
