# Cropping a portion of a postscript file
# Postscript magic and instructions provided by Chapman Flack.
# Script implemented by Diego Zamboni <zamboni@cerias.purdue.edu>
#
# 1.  View the page in gv.  If it's a multipage document, mark the pag
+e and
#     hit "save marked" so you have a small file to deal with.
# 2.  Move the mouse pointer to the lower left corner of the area you 
+want.
#     Record the gv displayed coordinates as X1 and Y1.
# 3.  Point to the upper right corner and record X2 and Y2.
# 4.  Run "crop-ps X1 Y1 X2 Y2 file.ps > cropped_file.ps"
#
# This will not work for postscript files that do not have the appropr
+iate
# structuring comments (%%EndSetup, %%Page, etc.)
