The problem is to get exact sizes on a PostScript plot. For example, what should I do if I want a 5x5 cm picture containing a 12 pt label. The script attached sets 5x5 cm paper size, 12 px font and draws a TText in 50x50 px and 200x200 px canvases, prints their to .eps files. I get plots having different height/width ratio (of course != 1). -- Best regards, Maxim Nikulin { gStyle->SetPaperSize(5, 5); gStyle->SetTextFont(133); gStyle->SetTextSize(12); c50x50 = new TCanvas("c50x50", "c50x50", 50, 50); text1 = new TText(.10, .10, "Text"); text1->Draw(); c50x50->Print("c50x50.eps"); c200x200 = new TCanvas("c200x200", "c200x200", 200, 200); text1->Draw(); c200x200->Print("c200x200.eps"); }
