.SH NAME
psmegaplot \- To create poster-size \fIPostScript\fP plots from page-size plot
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBpsmegaplot\fP \fIplotfile\fP \fB\-S\fP\fIscale\fP [ \fB\-C\fP ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBpsmegaplot\fP reads a GMT-produced \fIPostScript\fP file and 'blows it up' by an arbitrary scale. The result is several
plots that make up the pieces in a jigsaw puzzle. Cut and paste these pieces to make a 'megaplot'.

\fIplotfile\fP
\fIPostScript\fP file as created by the GMT programs.
.TP
.B \-S
Multiply the x- and y-dimension by \fIscale\fP. \fIscale\fP must be larger than 1.0.
.SH OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated arguments.
.TP
.B \-C
Plot crop marks in each corner of every output page. [Default is no marks]

.SH BUGS
This program is unlikely to work on non-GMT-produced \fIPostScript\fP files
since it anticipates the structure of the file. It also assumes that the
output media is Letter size.
