gnuplot - how do I turn image so it displays horizontal-left to right?

[wallg]

Hope this helps explain what I am seeing, and what I want to accomplish.

When I use "set terminal postscript portrait", the graph displays this way-

Title on top
Graph left to right
But graph is thin (left to right)
Taller up/down
^
|
v

When I use "set terminal postscript landscape", the graph displays this way-

Title on top
Graph left to right
But is turned 90% to the left
^
|
v

I would like for it to be displayed this way-

Title on top
Graph left to right
<--->

With this example I am using pbm instead of postscript, but I want to be able to use postscript.

Is there a way to turn/rotate or roll the graph or image so that it looks like the 3rd picture?


Thanks.

Additional information - I am using gnuplot in a CGI script and generating the image on the fly for a web page.

example1.gif is when I use "set terminal postscript portrait"

example2.gif is when I use "set terminal postscript landscape"

example3.gif is when I use "set terminal pbm"

I would like for the postscript version to display like the pbm version (image horizontal). Is there a way to do this?

you want horizontal bars?

just switch the axes of the data, no?

No, I do want vertical bars, but I want the image itself to "lay" horizontally. That is, I want the image to look like example 3, where the width of the image is greater than the heighth.

I found that I can use "set terminal postscript eps" to turn it, but the image is coming out small now. Now I am trying to figure out how to make the image larger, if that is possible.

Thanks, I will take a look at the axes.

in postscript there is an option to scale an object, I can't remember it just at present ...

Hello All,

I ended up using set terminal postscript eps and epsffit to position it where I needed it on the web page.
