My personal preference is for direct graphics to look like function graphics (black on white background with thicker and larger lines and characters), especially since I am currently spending about half my time with each graphics system. But if I am going to drop-in replace PLOT with FSC_PLOT in legacy programs, then I would use the /TRADITIONAL keyword. I have found that otherwise FSC_PLOT can introduce conflicts with program that for example assume a default color of !D.TABLE_SIZE-1.

Please try:
IDL> p1 = plot(/TEST, STYLE_NAME='IDL classic')
IDL> p1.save, 'p1.ps'
IDL> p2 = plot(/TEST, STYLE_NAME='IDL standard')
IDL> p2.save, 'p2.ps'
then compare p1, p2 plots and PostScript files.
You can change nearly everything by using the style editor and create
your own style in a consistent way.
