I will investigate this as my first priority on Monday after I synch up 
with your changes.

Some possibilities:
1.Some dimensions in the formatter are not scaling correctly (can check by 
setting to high and low zoom). Try running at 400%

2. Some assumptions of screen/paper in the formatter are incorrect.

3. Bugs in the XFT=> PS translation

Anyway, I will check. I suggest we delay the release of tarballs and 
binaries until we know the scope of the problem. If it easy to fix, delay 
until it's fixed. If it's hard, release right away and warn people.

Cheers

Martin
