I do not really understand what you desire to get. May be my response is
not helpful but silly.
#(define pts-list
'((12 . 8)
(5 . 8)
(2 . 2)
(15 . 2)))
In your List you have the start point defined with ay (x.y)= (2,2) and
the end point (15,2) - that is the last pair of coordinates.
Looks like I need to calculate the actual X/Y-extents of the resulting
bezier-curve.
The x extent of your curve therefore is 15-2 = 13.
The y extent is harder to calculate as it depends on the parameters of
the bezier definition. A good description is here:
http://www.math.ucla.edu/~baker/149.1.02w/handouts/bb_bezier.pdf
The line override does nothing?
\override #'(box-padding . 0)
If you set (0,0) instead of (2.2) the starting point is at (0.0) and
this is the rotation center. (You rotate in your example around this
point.) Then you have to change the last corrdinate pair to (13,0) for
to get the seme base length and to stay in the box.
The first coordinate pair of the definition in
#(define pts-list
controls the steepness of the start and end of the curve and the form,
please see the link above for details.
May be I missed the point?

Hi all,
I'm going to write a generic bow-stencil.
Below you'll find a boiled down example.
The main problem: how to determine the correct extents.

Though, obviously my maths-skills are not sufficient.
Any hints?
