Full page plot in postcript [message #88445]

Hi,

I am using multiplot to create plots depicting various parameters in the same time interval. Since i have many panels, I would like my plot to occupy the full page in my postscript file and not only the fixed window size provided by idl.
Which keywords do I use to change this?

Thanks a lot.

You use the XSIZE and YSIZE keywords of DEVICE. It's way harder than it should be. Then check out David's page on this topic for ideas:
