Thread moved to plplot-devel as this appears to be a code problem. See comments below.

I hope we will > be able to fix it soon (in the svn version), but no promises. The standard example 9 demostrates this. Look at the contour labels at the top. This problem appears to apply to other drivers using the plfreetype support code too. I've tested with gd and wxwidget drivers. There is no clipping support in plfreetype.c as far as I can tell. At a quick look I think that this code should be in FT_PlotChar(). Unless there are other volunteers who know this code better than me, I'll try to take a look at it in the next week or so.
