Dear Hans,
Thanks for your answer. I used eps option and it does cure the problem I
raised. I would like to ask though, if I don't use eps, then a correct eps
file can still be generated and recognized. It seems to me the only
difference with or without eps option is to generate a graph which can be
fit into an A4 page either standing up or laying down (sorry for not being
able to find the correct expression for that).
And, if I don't use eps option, can I make full use of gnuplot commands to
achieve the same effect? I tried to use {10,5} to make a graph with width
larger than height, but it does not work that way, so how come?
Thanks,
Sincerely,
Jon
