										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a little update to the <a href="./../../../introduction/output-terminals/index.html#epslatex">epslatex terminal</a> introduction page.</p>
<p>The tics labels can automatically use the math mode from LaTeX by setting the right format option:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<span class="k">set</span> format <span class="s">'$%g$'</span>
</pre>
<p>Another change is to omit the <code>\resizebox</code> command in LaTeX to include the figure. The problem is that this command also scales your fonts, which you probably don&#8217;t want. The alternative is to specify the correct size of your plot before hand and then including the file only with:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<span class="k">\begin</span>{figure}
    <span class="k">\input</span>{file}
<span class="k">\end</span>{figure}
</pre>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the <a href="./../../../introduction/plotting-functions/index.html">introduction</a> I have set the xtics labels manually to use a multiple of &pi;:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<span class="k">set</span> xtics (<span class="s">'-2&pi;'</span> <span class="n">-2</span><span class="o">*</span><span class="c">pi</span>, <span class="s">'-&pi;'</span> <span class="c">-pi</span>, <span class="n">0</span>, <span class="s">'&pi;'</span> <span class="c">pi</span>, <span class="s">'2&pi;'</span> <span class="n">2</span><span class="o">*</span><span class="c">pi</span>)
</pre>
<p>But there is an easier way to achieve the same. First we tell Gnuplot to place the tics at multiplies of &pi;. And then the trick: with the <code>set format</code> option we can tell Gnuplot to use multiple of &pi; too:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<span class="k">set</span> xtics <span class="c">pi</span>
<span class="k">set</span> format <span class="v">x</span> <span class="s">'</span><span class="ss">%.0P</span><span class="s">&pi;'</span>
</pre>
<p>In the same way we can place tics without any label by applying:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<span class="k">set</span> format <span class="v">x</span> <span class="s">''</span>
</pre>
