Dear all,
I am able to create an output via tikz terminal using
set term tikz size 5in,3in standalone header 
"\\usepackage{MyGnuplotLaTeX}" font "\\rmfamily,12"

I obtain a .tex-file. Although this tex-file contains the line 
\begin{document}, it has no \end{document} which results in a problem if 
my gnuplot script has the following lines:


system(sprintf('pdflatex %s%s', basename, end3))

basename=filename
end3=.tex

The terminal is not able to finish pdflatex as it asks for an \end. At 
least I assume the missing \end{document} is the reason for this.
Terminal says: (Please type a command or say `\end')
If I type into the terminal \end{document}, the latex run finsihes.

How can this be fixed, please?

Thank you.
Gudrun
