If you use the scale option in latex you will be able to see the
entire figure.

I maximise my figure window, either use File->Save As  or I save the
file with the print command (print('-depsc',filename.eps) ). Then in
latex, use the scale option to \includegraphics, i.e

\includegraphics[scale=0.6]{your_graphics_file}

to shrink the image to fit on the page. You will not see the entire
figure in Ghostview but you will see it in your .dvi if you use the
scale option. If you need to print the figure from anything else but
Latex I open the eps into Coreldraw (or any other vector based
software) and then resize and save it again from there. It depends on
what you fancy.

I maximise the window and use very large fonts and lines (36pt and
3pt) so that it will look ok when I scale it down. It looks ugly on
screen but good in print.
