Saving pdf's inside loop

Hello guys:

i have a script to create subplots, and divide them into different pages, however i'm unable to save these pages as pdf inside the loop, here is the code:

    station='CONT';
    ps=8;% plots per page
    np=nim; %number of plots

for it=1:np
    xt=rem(it-1,ps)+1;
if xt==1
    figure;
end

      ax1=subplot(4,2,xt);
      xlim(Xll(it,:)); %xlimits, come from figure structure
      ylim(Yll(it,:)); %ylimits, come from figure structure 
      copyobj(allchild(get(h1(it),'CurrentAxes')),ax1);

      %check this is NOT WORKING ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
      fout = sprintf('%s_DR_%u.pdf',station,idx);

      saveas(gcf,fout,'pdf');

end

thanxs in advance for any idea

"NOT WORKING" is not useful to explain what happens. Do you get an error message? Perhaps this message contains the information that the variable "idx" is not defined? Perhaps you want "it" to appear inside the name of the file?

no, instead of save one pdf for each subplot, just save twice the last subplot.... the question is where to put the saveas line to get one pdf for each loop...
