Hi Steve,

Thanks a lot, it does perfectly what I needed to achieve.

Christian,

To plot a map using no margins, set the margings to "NM" in the
projection variable, and select your lat/lon bounding area in
GAREA to maximize the coverage in both width and height
(and/or use the "cursor gareax" command to select a subregion for the
map that will fill the window area).

Using the default 900x700 view area in both the xw and gf driver,
here are some examples that I arrived at using the "CURSOR GAREAX" command: 
 GAREA    = 40.0;-85.0;68.0;-49.8
 PROJ     = ced//nm

 GAREA    = 43.3;-83.6;57.3;-35.4
 PROJ     = STR/90.0;-75.0;0.0/nm
If you change your window size, then you would want to maintain the same ratio.

Inquiry: Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible in GEMPAK to plot station data with sfmap in a gif image but with no margin at all. I mean that I would want the plot to u se all the available space of the gif image, in the purpose of overlaying tha 
t gif image on top of another one with Imagemagick.

Is it possible?

Thanks,
