A good initial The point is. Instead of using -deps for PDF output -dpdf

you can correct the bounding box problem by using the following code

  set (gcf, 'paper size', [6.25 7.5]); Set (gcf, 'paperposition mode', 'manual'); Set (GCF, 'Paperpection', [0 6.25 7.5]); Set (gcf, 'papernansi', 'inch'); Set (gcf, 'paper size', [6.25 7.5]); Set (gcf, 'paperposition mode', 'manual'); Set (GCF, 'Paperpection', [0 6.25 7.5]); Set (gcf, 'renderer', 'painters'); Print (gcf, '-dpdf', 'my-figure.pdf'); Print (gcf, '-dpng', 'my-figure.png'); Print (gcf, '-depsc2', 'my-figure.eps');
