I can generate quite a few different vector formats, and I'll
use whichever one the library can accept.

That's almost what I'm looking for, except it appears it can
only rotate/crop pages and not scale/translate them.

I've been looking at the new version (4.20 of Gnuplot, and some

solves my problem as well.  It appears I've got a number of 80%
solutions from which to choose.  ;)
