Axis labels in EPS figure are outside bounding box

[Matthias Brennwald]

Dear all

The below code example produces an eps file containing a simple  
figure. The resulting eps file is attached. The problem is that the  
axis labels are cut off, i.e. they are partially outside the bounding  
box of the figure. What am I doing wrong? What can I do to circumvent  
this problem?

---------------
plot (sin ([0:100]/10)); axis ([0 100 -1.1 1.1]);
fs = 18;
set (gca,'fontsize',fs);
xlabel ('x label','fontsize',fs);
ylabel ('y label','fontsize',fs);
print ('testy.eps','-depsc','-S500,400');
