> When is a screen device ever assumed to be 72 dpi? I don't assume that
Next black hardware ? Plus I thought 72 points per inch was the assumed default resolution for PostScript. e.g. the following file should always produce a 1inch black square should it not ? %!PS-Adobe-3.0 0 setgray 72 72 moveto 0 72 rlineto 72 0 rlineto 0 -72 rlineto closepath fill showpage ...thats probably where the screen assumption comes from thinking about it, assuming the DPS engine also fires up with that assumption. > Depends.

O.K., I'm convinced my code is wrong :-) Will go back and take a look at it and see if I can find a nice easy way round it. -bat. _______________________________________________ Bug-gnustep mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnustep
