I am looking to rasterize a 3D surface plot using Plots, while keeping the rest of the figure (such as axes labels and lines vectorized). I am hoping to do this to reduce the file size of some very large images. I know this is possible elsewhere with something like rasterized=true, and was hoping someone would know how to do this in Plots.jl
