Well I don't imagine many people out there have a version of gs older than my venerable 5.50. gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sDEVICE=bbox file.ps %%BoundingBox: 56 60 297 288 %%HiResBoundingBox: 56.105998 60.088002 296.100000 287.687997 This is gs area of expertise. I vote that we let gs handle it. > I'm no more interested in this area, it works and the > > speed is okay ... Fair enough. I may look at it one day. Angus
