Hi,
There's one more way to control line thickness for postscript output,
if you create postscript from a metafile. Have a look at this FAQ:
Changint the line thickness in Postscript

Hi Ansley,
Thanks a lot. Both your suggestions are working well, pretty much
what i desired. The letters do become very hard to read, but gets much
thinner when i convert the output to ps/pdf format and so i needed the
thick lines. Next i'll learn how to control the font size, font type
and font colour of colour bar.
I had unsuccessfully tried to use the script bold.jnl a long time
back and so it completely slipped out of my mind.

Hi
Samrat,
What you are trying is working for me even on the lines that are used
in the color bar. So we can work on finding out what's happening
there. Try adding "ppl pen,1,13" also. But first I have a different
suggestion for you to try. Before making your plot, run the script
yes? GO bold
The script bold.jnl, included with the Ferret distribution, sets fonts
and text sizes for nicer output. You can combine this with ppl pen
commands, but I find those make the letters so thick that they're hard
to read.

Hi,
I am using Ferret v6.1. When using the fill command, in order to make
the axes as well as the xlab, ylab and title darker, i use the command
ppl pen 0,13. But this does not darken the colour bar that appears on
the right hand side of the diagram. How do i achieve this?
