gEDA-user: PostScript output - moving off-center?

2009-03-01 Thread gdedwards
Is there any way to get the PS output of pcb moved off-center on the page? I'm using toner transfer; my printer has much better density down one side of the paper than the other and I'd like to position the board appropriately. Cheers Gareth ___

Hi Stuart, As some of you know, I gave a lightening talk about the gEDA Project at Ignite Boston 5 last week. ... Folks interested in presenting their own talks about gEDA are encouraged to plunder my slides for useful material. I've just volunteered to do an almost-impromptu talk/demo to
