I need to plot a function within a paper I need to write. I don't want to capture a screenshot of the function. I want to do it with Pstricks, but I have had very bad luck with it. Every thing I have tried to do, fails one way or another. I don't know why.
This code was taken from the PSTRICK exapmples page (http://tug.org/PSTricks/main.cgi?file=pst-plot/examples).
Code: Select all

\end{document}The same thing occurs with psset and other commands
Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance.
