I want to plot the biggest possible unit circle, with grid lines and no labeled axis, on a standard sheet of paper. The best I can do has about an inch and a half of white space to the left and to the right. I think that the frame (the axis ?) is getting in the way even though I used "axis off". Can any one help me?

one of the solutions

x=sind(0:360);
y=cosd(0:360);
line(x,y);
set(gca,...
'position',[0,0,1,1],...
'xlim',[-1.1,1.1],'ylim',[-1.1,1.1],...
'xtick',[],'ytick',[]);
axis equal;
% then, set your FIGURE's paper-position/-size...

I think what I need to know is how to set my figure's paper-position/size. Using page setup, I can manage a figure with a width of about 5 1/2 inches and I would like to get a figure about 7 inches wide.
