It was an error in my commandline. You should run latex on the file
new3.tex

Well, it is not really a problem, but with the 'standalone' option it is
less work ;-)
Without this option you must create a second .tex file which includes
the file generated with gnuplot.
Note, that with the epslatex terminal you cannot use the enhanced option
of postscript driver -> '{/=25 ...}' because all the text is typeset
with LaTeX. Every backslash of the LaTeX macros must be escaped to
appear correctly in the output -> set label "$\\Gamma$"
Given your datafile 'grid.dat' the following workflow should work:
,,,
(o o) File: plot.gp
-------------------------------oOO--(_)--OOo---------------------------
set term epslatex
set output 'plot-inc.tex'
set nokey
#
# Multiplots of the two grid systems:
#
set size square
set multiplot
set origin 0, 0
set size 0.7,0.7
set xrange [0:6.5]
set yrange [0:6.5]
set format x '%g'
set format y '%g'
set lmargin 10
set bmargin 5
set xtics (1, 2, 5)
set label 1 '0' at -0.35,-0.26
set ytics 2, 2, 6
set label 2 '$R$' at 3, -0.9
set label 3 '$Z$' at -1.3, 3
plot 'grid.dat' using 3:4 w l
#
set origin 0.5, 0
set size 0.7, 0.7
set nolabel
set xrange [0:pi/2]
set xtics ("0" 0, "$\\pi/2$" pi/2)
set yrange [0:1]
set lmargin 5
set bmargin 5
set noxtics
set ytics 0, 1, 1
set label 1 '0' at -0.02, -0.07
set label 2 "$\\theta$" at 0.8, -0.1
set label 3 "$\\Gamma$" at -0.18, 0.6
plot 'grid.dat' w l
---------------------- end file --------------------------------------
call this file with gnuplot:
gnuplot plot.gp
This creates two files: plot-inc.eps and plot-inc.tex
As gnuplot 4.0 does not seem to understand the 'standalone' option, you
must create another .tex file which includes the one created from gnuplot:
,,,
(o o) File: plot.tex
-------------------------------oOO--(_)--OOo-------------------------
\do***entclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{cmbright}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
\begin{do***ent}
\input plot-inc
\end{do***ent}
---------------------- end file --------------------------------------
call this with latex and dvips
latex plot.tex && dvips plot.dvi
and you get the desired output file. This gives you a file 'plot.ps'
which bounding box is not correct. A better option, which requires the
package pst-eps.sty, is to use the following file:
,,,
(o o) File: plot-enh.tex
-------------------------------oOO--(_)--OOo-------------------------
\do***entclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{cmbright}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{pst-eps}
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
\begin{do***ent}
\begin{TeXtoEPS}
\input plot-inc
\end{TeXtoEPS}
\end{do***ent}
---------------------- end file --------------------------------------
and call it with
latex plot-enh.tex && dvips -E plot-enh.dvi -o plot-enh.tmp.eps &&
epstool --copy --bbox --output plot-enh.eps plot-enh.tmp.eps
(on my debian-computer 'epstool' is ****pped with an equally named
package and adjusts the bounding box when call as above. If you don't
have it, plot-enh.tmp.eps already contains the correctly fomatted output
but with incorrect bounding box)
Then you get a nicely typeset EPS-file 'plot-enh.eps' with correct
bounding box.
Hope this guide helps you and does not contain more tpyos ;-)
