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.
