The printout I showed was manually fabricated from inserting
the output of test-running the lab results table generation
code into the fully-replaced .tex file (gotten from
generating a current medications list from the current meds
template via the GUI) and re-running that with xelatex.

However, by now I have updated the

	"lab: most recent results (GNUmed default)"

template that's included with GNUmed. It did not yet end up
in the rc but comes with the latest git master.

Which template did you use, or else, how did you effect the plotting ?

Plotting will generate a PNG, yes :-)

But I added a TODO: ask whether to generate a PDF from plotted lab results=
 ;-)


Also, look for the template:

	"lab results plot: many test types (GNUmed default)"

That will allow for selecting several test *types* to plot
(each of which can contain many test *results*).
