Hadn't thought of that -- I bet you're right, Pete! On Macs in particular I've had to rebuild the grfont.dat file. Suns may be the same way -- the one that ships with pgplot itself is in little-endian order, and rebuilding it is necessary on a big-endian machine.

I remember having a similar problem (no text appearing) when I switched to Mac.

Deaglan probably has an environment issue. In particular, environment
variable PGPLOT_DIR should be set to the directory containing the
grfont.dat file for your pgplot installation. Alternatively, PGPLOT_FONT
can be set to the full pathname of the font file. Hope this helps!

Hi Deaglan:  I'm no longer using PGPLOT with PDL, instead I'm using
PDL::Graphics::PLplot (it turns out the PLplot is another plotting package
similar, but in some ways nicer than, PGplot, but under current
development).

If changing to PLplot would be too painful (this might be true, the
interface is quite different) then:

1) I'm CCing the perldl group, the folks who still use PGplot may
have some ideas.

2) I remember when I used PGplot always having to use the low level
interface, so instead of using XTitle => 'foo', I'd have to use pgtext or
some such.

Hope this helps,

Hi,
I'm a student working at LLNL. I'm using PDL/PGPLOT for my summer project
involving data
processing and graphing. The graph generation is working great except for o
ne
thing- I
can't get labels to appear on the graphs no matter what I do. All the other

options work
great, but the options XTitle => '', YTitle => '', Title => '' seem to hav
e
no effect
when used inside env, or new. My graphs appear with tick marks but no nuber

on the axes,
and no titles. I'm generating ps/cps or /xs outputs. I don't know what to d
o.
Can you
please advise? Thank you so much for your time.
