entries in the trellis parameters, but there is still a large white space
between the key and the top of the plot area. Does anyone know how I can get
rid of that (or if I'm going about this all wrong and there's a much cleaner
way)?

Deepayan -
Thank you for your reply. In the past I've generally done what you suggest,
but I'm trying to use tikz so the graphics can inherit the fonts used in the
LaTeX document. Is there a way to do that with the pdf device?
Thanks.
