Hello,
I constructed a graph with matlab and saved it as a .pdf file. However, I notice the pdf graph is missing elements that are present on the matlab output.
Here is the Matlab output
Here is the pdf output.
Here is my saving code.
h=gcf;
set(h,'PaperPositionMode','auto');
set(h,'PaperOrientation','landscape');
set(h,'Position',[50 50 1200 800]);
print(gcf, '-dpdf', 'Mypdf.pdf')
Can someone help ? I want my pdf graph to be exactly the Matlab output.

Would it be acceptable to make your ylim lower bound slightly negative, so that the dots were not exactly on the boundary?
I suspect that you are encountering depth considerations, which of the two left axes is on top of the other -- but it would not be surprising for pdf's idea of clipping to be just slightly different than MATLAB's.

You are right @Walter Roberson. It works. Thanks a lot.

Summary from above:
making the ylim slightly lower helped, as then there was no conflict between the point markers and the line for the border.
