two cosmetic questions

Hi,
  I am trying to make nice plots for a document. My canvas is divided
into two pads, one above the other. To make the labels large enough to
read on paper, I use

gStyle->SetLabelSize(0.08);
gStyle->SetLabelSize(0.08,"yaxis");
  
The problem is the x-axis labels get pushed down, out of the pad. If 
they are moved up to make them visible, they collide with the numbers. 
I think my solution is to move the frame higher up in the pad. (I don't
use a title on the pads.) How do I do this in an automatic way?

The second question is about getting axis information. How do I get the
range of the y-axis. I have tried 
   ymax = p1->GetUymax();
   ymin = p1->GetUymin();
and it doesn't seem to work. Neither does TPad::GetRangeAxis().

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Chris
