The plotting routines we're using are heavily customised and can't easily be replaced with Coyote Graphics equivalents. So I can't use Coyote Graphics for this purpose.

I did try writing to eps and then using cgps2pdf on the output but that did the similar mangling of the plots (probably because it was using the same converter in the innards).

Thanks,

Andy
