General ⇒ Header Part Got Cropped When Using latex+dvips+ps2pdf

[fractal.generator]

Dear all,

I want to use PSTRICKS (rather than PDFTRICKS) for my final PDF article.

Because this situation, I will use latex+dvips+ps2pdf compilation process.

However, I got a strange margin trouble when the input file is compiled using this process. The header part got cropped partially.

No problem exists when I compile the input file using pdflatex directly.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{book}%

%using pdflatex : no problem.
%using latex->dvips->ps2pdf : header part got cropped.
%\usepackage[a4paper, twoside, margin=25mm]{geometry}%


%using pdflatex : no problem.
%using latex->dvips->ps2pdf : header part still got cropped.
\usepackage[dvips, a4paper, twoside, margin=25mm]{geometry}%


\begin{document}
\chapter{One}
	one one one one one 
\chapter{Two}
	two two two two two  
\end{document}

Please let me know why this trouble happened.

thank you in advance.


regards,

Hayashi

Hi Hayashi,

perhaps there's a problem with the paper size. You could pass the paper size as option to ps2pdf:

Code: Select all

ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 filename.ps

@Stefan,

Thanks for replying.

I did your suggestion but i must use # rather than = in Windows.

The problem disappeared.

I used the following command:

Code: Select all

ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE#a4 input.ps output.pdf

btw, thank to STEFAN.
