I think the plwid(1) call in plot2() results in the line widths being  
thinner in the final plot than in the other three plots.  If you zoom  
in using gv, you will see that the text has an outline appearance and  
that the lines are thinner than on the previous plots.  If I disable  
the Apple viewer's "Anti-alias text and line art" option, then it  
looks the same as in gv.

Also, if I comment out the plwid() calls in plot2() (in x01c.c), the - 
saveD postscript looks OK even with the viewer's anti-alias option on.

Is the "plwid(1)" call in plot2() using an incorrect value to restore  
the line width?

Thanks,
Dave
