Hi,

Thanks Stuart, completely right this should do the trick. The PGPLOT_DIR en=
vironment var is set either as a system or user variable already and should=
 have done the trick...

Hassina: Try placing the PGPLOT_FONT var in the "opposite" enviroment varia=
ble cathegory. (If you don't know how to set environment vars in Vista, ple=
ase locate a windows expert at ORNL ;) )

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Hassina,

Looks like it might be that you need to set the PGPLOT_FONT environment var=
iable to point to the location of your grfont.dat file.

Cheers

Hello Peter,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I get an error message saying it =
is not able to read the font file: grfont.dat
%/PGPLOT, Unable to read the font file: grfont.dat

When I check the font on the Perl window, it is Arial Regular 128 in size a=
nd I cannot change it.
Here is a screen shot of one of the very first plot (the source):

Thanks for your help!

Anyone has experienced the absence of axis information after plotting? I do=

Thanks!


Is any error message printed to the console when this happens?



Could you perhaps post a zip archive with the problematic output data?
