Richard,

The plslabelfunc function may be useful:

http://plplot.sourceforge.net/docbook-manual/plplot-html-5.9.9/plslabelfunc.html

In short, this allows you to provide PLplot with a function that will
convert the numeric value at a label location into a string of your
choosing.  The first two pages of PLplot's standard example 19 use
this function to add N/S/E/W axis label suffixes to a map.  A similar
approach would work for your case, both for scaling and adding %.

I hope this helps,

Hez
