NAME
psmegaplot - To create poster-size PostScript plots from
page-size plot
SYNOPSIS
psmegaplot plotfile -Sscale [ -C ]
DESCRIPTION
psmegaplot reads a GMT-produced PostScript file and 'blows
it up' by an arbitrary scale. The result is several plots
that make up the pieces in a jigsaw puzzle. Cut and paste
these pieces to make a 'megaplot'.
plotfile
PostScript file as created by the GMT programs.
-S Multiply the x- and y-dimension by scale. scale
must be larger than 1.0.
OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated argu
ments.
-C Plot crop marks in each corner of every output
page. [Default is no marks]
EXAMPLES
To magnify a contour-map PostScript file 3 times, giving a
total of 9 output pages to be pasted together, try
psmegaplot hawaii_contour.ps -S3 -C > hawaii_con
tour_megaplot.ps
BUGS
This program is unlikely to work on non-GMT-produced
PostScript files since it anticipates the structure of the
file. It also assumes that the output media is Letter
size.
