GhostScript's printer drivers have an internal notion of margins. They crop off everything that falls out of them. I had to reduce right margin on my installation in order not to lose some page space. The top margin is probably reduced because gs believes that you use different paper size than the one required by .ps file. It always tries to align bottom margin right. If the file requires a4, you will have to specify PAPERSIZE=a4 on gs command line. > I know the complete image is contained in the Postscript file because I can > see it using gs in my X display. > If tried a number of things but I am unable to solve the problem.

It would have helped have you enumeratd the things you have tried. /Alby > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Robert Burns (rjbproc@vir.com) > Mtl., Ca. > -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
