Re: [Gnuplot-info] Strange Spaces!

[Dieter J. <die...@t-...>]

Dear Christian,
here's another one - a simple example how I do my graphs. To avoid sending you 
data files I just took a parabola as an example - if you have any open 
questions just let me know.

On top of this you will need the document "ps_guide.pdf" I have attached to 
this email; you can see there how to cope with specific fonts and text 
positioning in the postscript-terminal (comes with gnuplot but hardly anybody 
knows).

_If_ you are on linux I can provide a script that would convert _any_ (not 
only those from gnuplot) postscript file into a postscript document of 
optimum size for TeX (i. e. the boundary is there where the picture ends, the 
figure is not on a letter or A4 paper sheet, but on a sheet of exactly the 
size of your figure). This is very usefull when drawing figures like:

\begin{center}
\begin{figure}[H]
\includegraphics[scale=0.6,angle=30]{dummy.pdf}
\end{figure}
\end{center}

Surprise surprise if dummy.pdf should be on a sheet of paper and you're forced 
to find out how to exactly place and shift it around.

Hope this helps, 
happt TeXing


Dieter

if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font
with constant spacing like courier! :-)
