As a general rule for everybody here, I would suggest one of the first places you should always look when attempting a new plot with PLplot is http://plplot.sourceforge.net/examples.php followed up by clicking on the thumbnail of any example which might be of interest to get access to the source code that generated the example as well as clickable thumbnails for all pages of the example (if there is more than one such page then http://plplot.sourceforge.net/examples.php only gives a sample thumbnail corresponding to just one of the pages of such examples). @Dan: Thanks for your interest in using PLplot. Is the first demo plot in http://plplot.sourceforge.net/examples.php similar to what you had in mind? That shows 4 plots on the page but different arrangements of multiple plots per page are allowed. If you follow up as suggested above by looking at the code you might notice a reference to plssub documented at http://plplot.sourceforge.net/docbook-manual/plplot-html-5.9.9/plssub.html. Also look for references to plssub in http://plplot.sourceforge.net/docbook-manual/plplot-html-5.9.9/viewport_window.html to see how sub-pages fit into the overall scheme of view surfaces, (sub-)pages, viewports and windows that is used to help specify overall plot locations by PLplot.
