NAME

6       plbop - Begin a new page
7

SYNOPSIS

9       plbop()
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Begins  a  new  page.   For a file driver, the output file is opened if
13       necessary.  Advancing the page via pleop(3plplot) and plbop(3plplot) is
14       useful when a page break is desired at a particular point when plotting
15       to subpages.  Another use for pleop(3plplot) and plbop(3plplot) is when
16       plotting  pages to different files, since you can manually set the file
17       name by calling plsfnam(3plplot) after the call to pleop(3plplot).  (In
18       fact  some drivers may only support a single page per file, making this
19       a necessity.)  One way to handle this case  automatically  is  to  page
20       advance  via pladv(3plplot), but enable familying (see plsfam(3plplot))
21       with a small limit on the file size so that a new  family  member  file
22       will be created on each page break.
