Description ryxm 2001-09-22 15:33:04 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kghostview
Version:           0.12 (using KDE 2.2.0 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Red Hat Linux 7.1.93
Compiler:          gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-96)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.2-2
OS/Compiler notes: 

For Postscript files with a bounding box provided kghostscript properly sets the window size to match the size of the bounding box but it does not shift the image so that the corner of the bounding box matches the corner of the window.  As a result the display is offset with big margins on two edges and the opposite edges of the Postscript image cut off.  You can see the whole picture properly if you shift the page size to e.g. letter.  This feature works correctly in the Gnome Postscript viewer.  For an example try http://t2.lanl.gov/data/astro/s-ddn.ps.

Yes kghostview clearly does it wrong. I'll see if I can fix it for KDE-3.0.
