After creating some drawings with MacDraw II, I use the Cmd-f trick to get the PS files. However, in the PS files, the Bounding Box was not specified: ... %%Bounding Box: ? ? ? ? ... And I would like to get those values. Is there a way? _____________________________________________________________________________ | Kevin WONG | ACSnet : kklw@mullian.ee.mu.OZ | | Department of Elec Engineering | internet : kklw@mullian.ee.mu.OZ.AU | | University of Melbourne | uunet : uunet!munnari!mullian!kklw |

If you upload the PostScript file to a Unix host connected to a PostScript printer, you can have the file printed in such a way that the coordinates of the bounding box are printed along with the picture. It's complicated to get it to work, and it requires two programs called 'macps' and 'bbfig', along with a copy of the PostScript header file that has been modified using 'prepfix' (it's not legal to send around the modified version of the PostScript header file, since it is (c) Apple). Let me know if you want more details. --Mark
