Perhaps GV do not take same bounding boxes into account as other viewers do, and simply show where there is content, disregarding where there is instructions that the content (or page or printable area or whatever the various boxes are for) dictate. All I know is that two different PDF renderers agree on an output which makes me blame the input as more likely flawed than (one of) those renderers. > Also, I have noticed that when I open my PS file with a viewer which > is converting to PDF on the fly, the skewing appears. To be potentially helpful (to others than me: I am convinced already) you need to figure out it in fact you have found a 3rd renderer proving my point or you are just indirectly proving my point using one of those same renderers. > Do you know how Evince uses Poppler for rendering ? is it converting > the file to PDF to show it?

I don't see how it matters if Poppler stores on disk or takes a coffee break before it presents its rendering - fact is it somehow produces same skewed result as Ghostscript does, from an independent codebase. > I would appreciate you if you can point me in the right direction to > determine where this bug is produced. Sorry, I cannot help debug TeX. Perhaps you simply need to initially page defaults properly, but that's just a wild guess. I honestly cannot help you further. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
