Hey Jae-Joon!

Thank you for your answer!

Indeed the ps output is colored! That's great  :)

OK, you got me -- actually, this was already a hack. My problem is that
I have labels which read something like

d = 12m

where the number varies within ]0, 20[. I would have liked to get an
aligned legend, like

d =  9m
d = 10m

In order to achieve that, i was trying to print a white (=invisible) "1"
whenever the number was smaller than 10 as spaceholder (I do not want to
use a monospaced font). Obviously, this doesn't work any more as soon as
you reach 20...



Thanks again for the help -- I'm happy for the moment, but if you (or
someone else) can show me how to align the legend, it would be great.

Best wishes,
Sebastian.
