NAME
psmegaplot - To create poster-size PostScript plots from page-size plot
SYNOPSIS
psmegaplot plotfile -Sscale [ -C ]
DESCRIPTION
psmegaplot reads a 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'.
NB! Any rotation/translation/scaling performed at the top of the original PostScript file must be
reversed at the end of the file in order for psmegaplot to work. Also, there must be no
showpage command at the end of the file. (Run GMT programs with the -K option)
- plotfile
-
PostScript file as created by the GMT programs or by other means.
- -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 arguments.
- -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
