Hi, I have a problem setting a line of rotated text (test.groff). Output device is post script.
Here is some processing (test.sh) that all succeeds but finally on a call to ps2pdf the page containing the rotated line itself is rotated by 180deg. Reasons unclear. A preceeding "void" helped, dropping \[:u] also. However, at the production groff-source non of that works. The issue first occured for my own rotate macro: .de RT \\X'ps: exec gsave currentpoint 2 copy translate -\\$2 rotate neg exch neg exch translate' \\$1 \\X'ps: exec grestore' .. Since post script is ok, it seems to be a problem of gs at producing pdf. However, is it possible to fix it at the groff level. Regards Holger
