I just ran a diff between http://root.cern.ch/root/html/ps/psexam.ps and the output from psexam.C under Root 2.00/09 NT 4.0: The first significant difference is that many numbers in the .ps output are now negative where they used to be positive. ------ original psexam.ps, beginning at line 143 ----- %%Page: number 1 black [] 0 sd 1 lw 0.95 0.95 0.95 c 2268 2509 0 0 bf 1 1 1 c 0 0 m 8 8 d 2493 Y 2252 X 8 8 d -2268 X -2509 Y f 0.665 0.665 0.665 c 0 0 m 8 8 d 2252 X 2493 Y 8 8 d -2509 Y -2268 X f black [] 0 sd 1 lw 0.7 0.7 0.7 c 1360 126 454 2258 bf black [] 0 sd 1 lw 471 2258 m -11 Y 1355 X 119 Y -12 X -108 Y f [] 0 sd 1 lw 454 2258 m 126 Y 1360 X -126 Y -1360 X cl s /xs 0 def (Printed text with PostScript) /Helvetica-Bold 84 stwn gsave 1134 2297 t 0 r xs 2 div neg 0 t 0 0 m /Helvetica-Bold findfont 84 sf 0 0 m (Printed text with PostScript) show gr [] 0 sd 1 lw 0.9 0.9 0.9 c 1814 752 227 1255 bf black [] 0 sd 1 lw 250 1255 m -16 Y 1806 X 745 Y -15 X -729 Y f [] 0 sd 1 lw 227 1255 m 752 Y 1814 X -752 Y -1814 X cl s /xs 0 def (Kínstler in den gråûten stÉdten) /Helvetica-Bold 84 stwn gsave 1134 1889 t 0 r xs 2 div neg 0 t 0 0 m /Helvetica-Bold findfont 84 sf 0 0 m (Kínstler in den gråûten stÉdten) show gr /xs 0 def («µ l\047úuvre on connaÛt l\047artisan») /Helvetica-Bold 84 stwn ------ psexam.ps generated by root 2.00/09 NT 4.0 beginning at line 143----- %%Page: number 1 black [] 0 sd 1 lw 0.95 0.95 0.95 c -2267 -2482 0 0 bf 1 1 1 c 0 0 m -9 -9 d -2464 Y -2249 X -9 -9 d 2267 X 2482 Y f 0.665 0.665 0.665 c 0 0 m -9 -9 d -2249 X -2464 Y -9 -9 d 2482 Y 2267 X f black [] 0 sd 1 lw 0.7 0.7 0.7 c -1360 -124 -453 -2234 bf black [] 0 sd 1 lw -473 -2234 m 14 Y -1354 X -118 Y 14 X 104 Y f [] 0 sd 1 lw -453 -2234 m -124 Y -1360 X 124 Y 1360 X cl s /xs 0 def (Printed text with PostScript) /Helvetica-Bold 72 stwn gsave -1133 -2273 t 0 r xs 2 div neg 0 t 0 0 m /Helvetica-Bold findfont 72 sf 0 0 m (Printed text with PostScript) show gr [] 0 sd 1 lw 0.9 0.9 0.9 c -1814 -745 -226 -1241 bf black [] 0 sd 1 lw -253 -1241 m 19 Y -1805 X -736 Y 18 X 717 Y f [] 0 sd 1 lw -226 -1241 m -745 Y -1814 X 745 Y 1814 X cl s /xs 0 def (Kínstler in den gråûten stÉdten) /Helvetica-Bold 88 stwn gsave -1133 -1865 t 0 r xs 2 div neg 0 t 0 0 m /Helvetica-Bold findfont 88 sf 0 0 m (Kínstler in den gråûten stÉdten) show gr /xs 0 def («µ l\047úuvre on connaÛt l\047artisan») /Helvetica-Bold 88 stwn ------ End of Diffs ----- As I expected, the original psexam.ps prints out fine on my printers. The one generated by Root 2.00/09 produces a patch about 1 cm tall by 0.5 cm wide at the lower left of the page, that appears to be the top right corner of the ps output. Can anyone suggest a workaround or fix for this problem? Is anyone else experiencing it?
