Hi, Arne!

Thank you for your suggestion :-)

I've just tested epsi, but it produces a plot on A4!

The header/footer looks like
%!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-2.0
%%Creator: NCAR GKS
%%CreationDate: May 5 2014 10:34:50
%%BoundingBox: (atend)
%%DocumentFonts: (atend)
%%EndComments
%%BeginPreview: 200 200 1 200

%%Trailer
%%DocumentFonts:
%%BoundingBox: 170 126 442 660
%%EOF

The Trailer BoundingBox values looks correct, but these are not used to draw the bounding box...

Cheers

Eunpa

Hi Eunpa!
I've not done exactly what you do, so this might be a bit of a shot in the dark. But it's simple to test:
Try using workstation "epsi" (e.g. gsn_open_wks("epsi","myplot"), and -if you wish- rename the result (mv myplot.epsi myplot.eps) Best wishes, Arne
