Hello!
I've just upgraded both operating system (Fedora 17) and Xwiki to 4.0 RC-1
and got an issue with the formula macro. Whenever I use it, the resulting
image created is 1020x1320 pixels big, mostly empty except for the
(correctly sized) formula placed in the bottom left corner of the .png image.

It works fine for me, so let's try and see where the problem occurs.
Start by putting this into a tex file called a.tex:
http://pastebin.com/8Tx92S5L
The renderer uses a three-step process, tex-dvi, dvi-ps, ps-png.
Let's try them out in order:
latex --interaction=nonstopmode a.tex
This should produce a.dvi, which should be a very big page with only the
formula in the center, no other text. Check if there are any errors displayed
there. Try without --interaction to make latex stop at errors.
dvips -E a.dvi -o a.ps
This should produce a.ps, which should be tightly cropped around the
formula. If it isn't then there's a problem, maybe dvips doesn't support
the -E parameter.
convert -density 120 a.ps a.png
This should produce a.png, having the same size as the ps.
For reference, here's what I have locally (texlive installation):
$ latex --version
pdfTeX 3.1415926-2.3-1.40.12 (TeX Live 2011)
kpathsea version 6.0.1
$ dvips --version
This is dvips(k) 5.991 Copyright 2011 Radical Eye Software
Thanks for the quick reply.
My texlive seem to produce a PostScript file that displays okay, but somehow
the convert step sets the canvas size to 1020x1320
Adding a -trim parameter to will work around the problem, such as:
convert -trim -density 120 a.ps a.png
I'll look for a mention of this behavior for Imagemagick shortly (need food)
(Sorry for messing up the thread, I guess..)
