Thanks David. Those lines produces the plot settings that I want. I see that ps_start accepts keywords from ps_config which gives lots of flexibility.

Three more things that I am wondering:

1-) Comparing to my default way of producing ps outputs (via "device" procedure) cg way produces slightly ticker lines, axes, and ticks. Would these be altered? If so, how?

2-) Can I specify the size and position of plotting axis on plotting canvas?

3-) How to make multi-page plots using ps_start /.../ ps_end setup?
