Is the problem that the bounding box does not match the size of the plot? That the plots "bleed" over onto subsequent pages?

Do you mean clipping the text at the edge of the plotting area? best, -Hazen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
