    Postscript Plot Sheets: Note

    I just noticed that the longitude lines weren't being drawn exactly where they should've been. A little tinkering and I fixed it.

    Find this part about half-way down the page:

    %

    yscale yscale scale

    sheet-width yscale div /sheet-width edef
    sheet-height yscale div /sheet-height edef
    paper-width yscale div /paper-width edef
    paper-height yscale div /paper-height edef
    margin-width yscale div /margin-width edef

    /inch {72 mul yscale div } def

    /xcvt { %% convert from an angle to an x coordinate

    ...and change the "72" to "80", like this:

    %

    yscale yscale scale

    sheet-width yscale div /sheet-width edef
    sheet-height yscale div /sheet-height edef
    paper-width yscale div /paper-width edef
    paper-height yscale div /paper-height edef
    margin-width yscale div /margin-width edef

    /inch {80 mul yscale div } def

    /xcvt { %% convert from an angle to an x coordinate

    That seems to fix it. Although, I must admit, I don't exactly know why. :)
