Re: how to edit a figure in PS form generated by IDL ?

[Glenn Newnham <gnewnham(at)ses.curtin.edu.au>]

I have used the CGM device for creating files that can be inserted and
edited in MS Word. The code would go along the lines of:

	set_plot, 'cgm'
	device, file='file name'
	plot, data
	device,/close
	set_plot,'win'
	end

Cheers,
