Really? So you are saying that the gnuplot script works for PNG output
but not for eps output?

To output to ascii, use "set term dumb".
But I just tried it, and your script + data file works as expected -
no problems (except for the missing 'set yrange [0:*]'.

Your script works here, and if I understand right it works for you
also in PNG, but not in latex. Since the plot layout in gnuplot is done
in core routines that are shared by all terminal drivers, if it works
in PNG and dumb it should work in all other terminal types as well.
So I guess I have to speculate about a latex problem. Are you sure that
your
latex do***ent isn't continuing to use an old, incorrect, version of the
eps file even after you create a newer, correct one in gnuplot?
Maybe it's a viewer problem - have you tried actually printing your
do***ent rather than using a screen viewer?
