Abstract
We investigate the radial properties of the narrow-line region (NLR) in two radio-quiet quasars, PG1012+008 and PG1307+085, using the spectra obtained with the FORS1 at the Very Large Telescope. These high quality spectra with seeing < 0.6" enable us to extract seven two-pixel (0.4") spectra as a function of the radial distance from the accretion disk. In contrast to [OIII] narrow-band imaging, which can be contaminated by starbursts, shock-ionized gas, and tidal tails, we use emission-line diagnostic to determine the true size of the AGN-excited NLR. In this poster, we present the results based on the radial variance of
