You can make it fit in the given space, but then the x tick labels are tiny
Code 1
\begin{axis}
[ ybar,
xlabel=Character,
ylabel=Probability,
xtick=data,
xticklabels from table={my.dat}{Character},
bar width=2pt,
width=0.95*\textwidth,
x tick label style={font=\tiny,align=right,rotate=90},
enlarge x limits=0.01,
enlarge y limits=0.01,
]
\addplot table
[ x=X-Position,
y=Probability
]
{my.dat};
\end{axis}
Result 1
But questions remain:
- do you have to do this on
letter paper?
- do the margins need to be this big?
- wouldn't a logarhitmic plot be better, as the right side of the diagram is basically empty?
For comparison:
Code 2
\usepackage[margin=0.6in]{geometry}
...
\begin{semilogyaxis}
ybar,
xlabel=Character,
ylabel=Probability,
xtick=data,
xticklabels from table={my.dat}{Character},
bar width=5pt,
width=0.95*\textwidth,
x tick label style={font=\footnotesize,align=right,rotate=90},
enlarge x limits=0.01,
enlarge y limits=0.01,
]
\addplot table
[ x=X-Position,
y=Probability
]
{my.dat};
\end{semilogyaxis}
Result 2
As suggested by Jake, a scatter plot is probably better that a bar plot for this case:
Code 3
\begin{semilogyaxis}
[ scatter,
scatter src=y,
only marks,
xlabel=Character,
ylabel=Probability,
xtick=data,
xticklabels from table={my.dat}{Character},
bar width=5pt,
width=0.95*\textwidth,
x tick label style={font=\footnotesize,align=right,rotate=90},
enlarge x limits=0.01,
enlarge y limits=0.02,
grid=major,
colormap={portal}{rgb255(0cm)=(255,128,0); rgb255(1cm)=(0,255,255)},
colormap name=portal,
]
\addplot table
[ x=X-Position,
y=Probability
]
{my.dat};
\end{semilogyaxis}
Result 3
I would really not recommend this plot because basically it's not readable and all data is dominated by Step 3 and predicted ones. First the question,
The plot goes up because you enlarge both limits, you need enlarge x limits=0.15,
I didn't get that error with your code.
You can do that via both declaring a width and a height dimension.
I cleaned up a bit, the code and the result is

As you can see, most of your data vanished and you have strange entries in your legend because those datasets are invisible.
Instead I can think of two options,
clean up the legend and mention only step3, step 5+6, and predicted columns with a disclaimer that the remaining step contribution is negligible and comparable
Combine your negligible entries into a sum and plot that but I can't judge whether it would be a good idea here for your application.

Using Jake's answer to How to draw bar chart using tikz? as a starting point, and adding a bit from Robert's answer to get the number at the end of the bars, and with a few modifications here and there. Also added an example of typesetting the table based on the same
\pgfplotstable.The values are calculated based on the table you showed and the coefficients you mentioned in the comment, see the
x exprstatements in the\addplotoptions.There are a few comments in the code, ask if anything looks like black magic.
Update: I thought of an easy way of doing the bar for the total in addition. I basically made a new axis of the same size, plotted the total there as an
xcombplot (anxbarwould probably also work), and then I shifted the whole axis down a bit withyshift. I also moved the ticklabels and the numbers down a bit.
