I am once again frustrated with printing. It seems as if something has gone wrong with the paper size or margin settings related to ghostscript. I believe the problem is related to the postscript files I create locally as opposed to those I download from, for example, www.w3c.org. If I do something such as 'enscript rfc3104.txt -o rfc3104.ps;gv rfc3104.ps &' I see that the created postscript file has a very small left margin.
I've discovered that most of the default setting on my box are for A4 paper size. I'm in the US and for reasons beyond my control I am forced to conform to standards which are inconsistent with the rest of the world. Nonetheless, I would like to be able to print without having to read (or write) a thesis paper on postscript. the files I've discovered with a default A4 papersize are:
/etc/a2ps-site.cfg /etc/enscript.cfg /usr/share/ghostscript/6.51/lib/gs_init.ps
changing the papersize to Letterdj or letter in these does not seem to fix the problem. I can't seem to identify the configuration setting to correct this problem. Does anybody know what the problem is, or how I can fix it?
In /etc/rc.config there is an entry called GROFF_PAGESIZE. If you put that to letter, and run SuSEconfig, does that help? -- Mads Martin Joergensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogic, with just a little bit more effort." -- A.
