I decided you were correct about not even including the Figure
num. figure caption in the eps file. However, I noticed another
problem. The left caption and left tick marks of the graph are
not included in the eps file. A complete example of the problem
follows:
@SysInclude { graph }
@SysInclude { picture }
@Illustration
{
@Graph
width {12 cm }
height {10 cm }
leftgap {2.5 cm }
leftcaption {90d @Rotate{slope of lnFatalities}}
belowcaption {slope of ln (Average Hourly Earnings) }
abovecaption {+2p @Font {Changes in Wages vs Fatalities}}
{
@Data {
@Data points {filledsquare}
{
#lnAHEslope lnAFslope
0.005331353 -0.021700863
-0.004527754 -0.032472214
0.025351023 0.022559239
} #End Data
} #End Graph
} #End Illustration
