grace supports PDF. However, it appears that the Ubuntu packages have
not compiled in this support.

grace's PDF support is deliberately disabled because PDFLib Lite isn't
DFSG-free software (no commercial use).  It can't be linked both because it
would kick grace out of main into non-free, and because PDFLib isn't packaged
for Debian, so it's not an option even then.  See README.Debian for the two
workarounds.
