Graph plotting file name = " "," "

A better plot may result from copying Facets graph coordinates, see "Copy Plot Data to Clipboard".

Provides the values plotted in Table 8 for the probability curves and expected score ogive in fixed column format. If comma-separated values are preferred, specify "Graphfile=filename, CSV" or CSV=Y. For Tab-separated values, specify "Graphfile=filename, Tab" or CSV=Tab

Heading lines= controls display of heading lines. QM= quotation marks, controls whether labels are within quotation marks.

From the Output Tables menu, this Graph Output file controls the production of the Graph output file

Field	Columns	Contents
1	1-10	Scale number(matches Sub-Table number for Table 8)
2	11-20	Measure (X-Axis)
3	21-30	Expected Score
4	31-40	Category value corresponding to expected score
5	41-50	Probability for bottom category
6	51-60	Probability for second category

Example:Provide coordinates so I can plot beautiful probability curves using my graphics package:

Graphfile=plot.dat,CSV; the name of an output file with comma-separated values, produces, for a 3 category rating scale (or partial credit):

1,-2.00,.23,0,.79,.20,.01

1,-1.92,.24,0,.77,.21,.02
