Re: Multiple plot outputs

Use draw() and frame() between pages, without closing the PDF
"workstation". This should be done automatically by the plot
command, for simple plots, unless contradicted by certain settings.
  For a nice simple example, download the code for maponly_2 from
this page, change "ps" to "pdf" in the gsn_open_wks function call,
and run it:

   http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/maponly.shtml

The following setting *disables* the automatic page advance,
although it is essential for some kinds of overlay features, such as
weather symbols and paneling.

   res@gsnFrame = False

This is discussed a little on the page for "frame", though not in
the context of a PDF file. When you need this resource, use an
explicit frame() command at the end of each page cycle, following
one or more plot commands. Good luck.
