I should clarify this. As I fill each page of PostScript
output, I start a new PostScript file. But I am doing
all of this in a single loop through all of my plots.
The point is, !Y.OMargin, which by appearances is a
system variable, acts as if it were a local variable
for a single PostScript file. As I create each new
PostScript file (2-3 files for my plot sequence), I
must re-issue the !Y.OMargin command for *each*
file. Otherwise, only the first file has outside margins.

Cheers,

David
