I would have a read through the many articles in
the Coyote Graphics section of my web page. But,
mostly I would update to a more up-to-date version
of the Coyote Library than the 3-4 year old one you
are using.

Another tip. This program will NEVER work in PostScript
as long as you position all those text strings with
DEVICE coordinates. You can use normalized coordinates
or data coordinates (lat/lon in your case). But DEVICE
coordinates are never going to work. :-)

Cheers,

David
