Well, I was able to fix the spacing problem with PDF+Type42. That has
now been fixed in SVN r4915 (and on the maintenance branch). It's a
simple patch that I'll forward to you.

It's always fun when an external dependency breaks something... ;) I
only have the fairly old gs 7.07, and it seems to always work with type
3, and sometimes break with type 42. Can you do me a favor to save me
the trouble of having to install a bunch of versions of ghostscript?
Can you send me an eps of the same plot produced through gs 8.15.0 and
8.15.2? I hope that by examining the differences there will be some
clue as to the breakage.
Thanks,
Mike
