Re: Plot to PDF

[Dr. Ing. Dieter Jurzitza]

Hi folks,
to whom it may concern: I do exactly this since quite some time. I have the 
script "gnuplotps2pdf" what does what it is called - and even more.
I've attached it here - you can use it even for any (AFAIK) postscript output 
from M$-Software in order to shrink the box down to it's absolute minimum.
Just call

gnuplotps2pdf <filename>

to create a minimum box size pdf from any postscript. If you have gv, you can 
use that to determine a box within any postscript file to create a pdf the 
size of which matches exactly the size of the selection.

It works under linux. You need extra effort on MAC (install gnu grep, edit 
file ...), on M$ - no way.

I prefer it over pdfcrop as it may use the postscript output of anything 
directly.

Take care



Dieter Jurzitza
