SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Researchers often spend disproportionate time crafting publication-quality figures with consistent styling, color contrast, and correct export formats across papers and presentations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Publication-ready figure templates for multi-panel layouts with consistent fonts, labels, and legends.
  • Colorblind-safe palettes and accessible labeling to meet journal and conference standards.
  • Export-ready outputs in PDF, EPS, and TIFF with journal-specific sizing and resolution guidelines.
  • Reproducible figure generation integrated into manuscript workflows for planning, analysis, and writing phases.

Quick Start

Prepare your data and run or adapt the provided figure scripts to generate figures in manuscript/figures/figN, export to PDF/PNG/TIFF, and create corresponding caption in manuscript/figures/figN/caption.md. Then reference the figure in manuscript/results.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create publication-ready scientific figures with colorblind-safe palettes?

You generate publication-ready scientific figures with colorblind-safe palettes by running provided scripts that apply accessible labeling, consistent fonts, and multi-panel layouts directly from your prepared data.

How do I export matplotlib or plotly figures to journal-specific PDF and TIFF formats?

Exporting matplotlib or plotly figures to journal-specific PDF, EPS, and TIFF formats is handled by the skill's export-ready outputs, which enforce correct sizing and resolution guidelines for manuscripts and presentations.

What is the best way to manage multi-panel layouts for scientific manuscripts?

Managing multi-panel layouts for scientific manuscripts is best handled by integrated figure templates that ensure consistent legends, labels, and fonts across all panels, with outputs organized into dedicated manuscript workflow directories.

Can I integrate seaborn figure generation directly into my manuscript writing workflow?

You can integrate seaborn figure generation directly into your manuscript writing workflow by linking figure outputs in manuscript/figures/figN directories and corresponding captions in caption.md files directly within manuscript/results.md.

Does this approach support reproducible figure generation across planning, analysis, and writing phases?

This approach supports reproducible figure generation across planning, analysis, and writing phases by applying consistent styling, colorblind-safe palettes, and scalable export formats throughout the entire manuscript, presentation, and report lifecycle.
