update I: typing opengl software reduces the problem to that of a frozen Matlab and not of a frozen computer.
Exporting figures is freezing up my computer

Hello!
I have created some figures in Matlab and want to convert them to another format, say .jpg or .eps. I have a few plots which I used the 'area' command and have set transparencies of <1 on them. When I try and convert/export/save as or even print these figures to a file my entire computer freezes up! I have not the faintest idea why this is happening!
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you!
p.s. I am using the Ubuntu O.S.

Have you tried export_fig, as recommended in the FAQ: http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_do_I_save_my_figure.2C_axes.2C_or_image.3F_I.27m_having_trouble_with_the_built_in_MATLAB_functions. ? It's the number 1 most downloaded MATLAB File Exchange submission.
