So it seems. > >If so, is there a simple way to fix the bounding box before >imagemagick gets called? You can write a program to read the PostScript as a text file, locate the Bounding Box line and add a few columns to the right side of the box. I just used a text editor but you don't want to do that if you are going to be repeating the process many times. Perl is a nice tool for such jobs if you know Perl. >Or do I need to fix dvips instead? :-) Someone does. Not me... > >Unfortunately I know almost nothing about PS files. Fortunately they are simple text files and the "Bounding Box" is easiliy located near the top.
