[ncl-talk] Plotting 33 graphs all in one workspace possible?

Hi Christina,

Normally for PDF, you open the workstation just once and generate as many
plots as you want; each plot will appear on a "page" of the PDF output.
When you make a call to gsn_open_wks() for each individual plot, that
obviously opens a new workstation that is not closed until the script ends,
and I believe there is a limit of 32 simultaneously opened workstations. So
I think if you take your original all-in-one-script plot, and make only one
call to gsn_open_wks(), you should be good to go.

Hope that helps...
Rick
