Re: label font sizes

[Mark Verschell <verschell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff,

	A general comment first, if you refer to PPLUS manual, chapter 8,
there is a whole section on PPLUS label commands. See also the PPLUS
manual, chapter 4, which is a command synopsis (4.3 is for label commands)

	Specifically, the two commands I think you want are AXLSZE to
change axis label heights, and then surprisingly, you need the LABSET
command (this is not obvious) which has the form:

LABSET,HLAB1,HXLAB,HYLAB,HLABS

Sets character heights for labels.  (also see LABS, RLABS, LLABS)
    HLAB1 = main label default=.16 inches
    HXLAB = x - label default=.12 inches
    HYLAB = y - label default=.12 inches
    HLABS = movable labels default=.12 inches
